During 'Shiva to Vangaveeti' event, Even Nagarjuna spoke about Varma's connection with Vodka: 'Both Me and Varma used to drink Vodka.

He speaks what's there in his mind without bothering about anything else'.In his recent interview, RGV revealed the influence of Vodka on the casting of 'Vangaveeti'.
'I met Sandeep Kumar during the party of 'Jyothi Lakshmi'. He played a small role in Puri's flick. Upon noticing similarities between him and Ranga, I showed him few pictures of the Kapu Leader and asked him to dress up like him. When he sent the pics, I am sure that he is the best choice,' he revealed.Few days later, Ramu got an idea after having two Vodka shots. He sent the pictures of Radha to Sandeep Kumar and asked him to appear like him. Upon receiving photos from the budding actor, RGV decided to make him play both father and son in the biopic.
