Vignesh always performs with his puppet, Anna. In an interview, he revealed why he chose a female character as his partner during performances, he said,
When a lot of women-related issues were given light, that’s when Anna, the female character, was born. Initially, my organisers or clients hinted to not put her on stage but I was keen on having a female character who would speak about relevant issues and not shy away from them. I made videos with her online and before I knew she was famous. Ever since, the journey hasn’t been harsh. People love Anna and Vighnesh’s arguments and I owe a lot to her. Like they say, behind every successful man, there is a woman!” check sources The Times of India

In an interview, he revealed that he never wanted to enter show business as he believed that it was not a stable field, and he wanted to make a career in a stable field. He said,
I started it way back in college because it was the best time to take a chance. Back then, I hated show business. I have seen the highs and lows of an artiste through my father’s (magician and ventriloquist) journey. There is no stability; that was one thing I wanted. But my ideas changed when I entered the field. Media attention is like a drug; you always want more.” check sources Mid-Day
