At a promotional event for Youth in Hyderabad, actor-director Ken Karunaas said that he is a big fan of Nani.

Speaking at the event, Ken said that he desires to be “one brick in the wall” that Nani builds. He added, “I can't do it as perfectly as Nani sir does, but if he watches Youth and if we meet, it will be a Jersey moment for me.”

Ken also took the opportunity to thank Suriya, Karthi, and Silambarasan TR for encouraging him.  The coming-of-age comedy drama marks Ken’s debut as a lead actor and has received mostly positive reviews. The film also stars Suraj Venjaramoodu, Devadarshini, Anishma Anilkumar, Meenakshi Dinesh, and Priyanshi Yadav.

With music by GV Prakash Kumar, Youth is set to release in Telugu on March 26.
