In a profession where trust and vulnerability are often at the core of performances, actor Vijay Varma is being celebrated for more than just his screen presence. Aastha Khanna, India’s first certified intimacy coordinator, has lauded the actor for his respectful, communicative, and empathetic on-set demeanor during their collaborations.
“Vijay Varma Is full green flag energy”: Intimacy director Aastha Khanna lauds actor’s respectful on-set conduct
Speaking about her experiences on projects like Murder Mubarak and Lust Stories 2, Khanna revealed that Vijay Varma stands out as a beacon of professionalism and kindness. “Vijay Varma is one of those people,” she said. “I’ve worked with him on three projects, and he’s just the most giving actor. He holds space, he communicates with his co-performer — whether it’s cracking a joke to ease tension or offering support in quiet ways — and it’s always done with the right energy. Vijay is full green flag energy.”
The phrase “green flag” — a popular cultural reference implying emotionally safe, supportive, and healthy behavior — is rarely heard in the context of film sets, especially involving scenes requiring emotional or physical vulnerability. Aastha’s comments place Vijay Varma in a distinct league of performers who prioritize emotional safety alongside artistic delivery.
Known for his impactful roles in Darlings, Gully Boy, She, and more recently IC 814: The Khandahar Hijack, Vijay Varma has carved a niche for playing complex, often morally grey characters. However, Khanna’s praise sheds light on a lesser-seen side of the actor — one that emphasizes warmth, consent, and emotional intelligence in high-pressure filming environments.
Her comments also come at a time when the Indian film industry is slowly but steadily embracing professional intimacy coordination — a role that ensures the physical and emotional safety of actors, especially in scenes involving intimacy or vulnerability. In such an evolving space, actors like Vijay become crucial examples of how the off-screen environment can significantly impact the quality and ethics of storytelling.
Vijay Varma continues to be a standout presence not just for his versatile roles, but for being a ‘green flag’ force of positivity behind the camera — proving that great acting goes hand-in-hand with genuine empathy.
