Vijay Deverakonda’s last release, World Famous Lover, received mixed reviews from the critics and general audience. He is currently acting in Puri Jagannadh’s next directorial (tentatively called Fighter), which is being made as a pan-Indian film. This action thriller, which is produced by Charmme Kaur and Puri Jagannadh, will be shot in Hindi and Telugu, while it will be dubbed and released in other South Indian languages. The film also stars Ramya Krishnan and Ronit Roy in important roles, while Ananya Panday plays the female lead. The shooting of this film is expected to resume once the lockdown is uplifted.

Meanwhile, exciting details about the stylish actor’s next film has been doing the rounds on social media. Latest reports from Tollywood suggest that Vijay Deverakonda would be joining hands with acclaimed director Mohana Krishna Indraganti for a new film that will be produced by Dil Raju’s Sri Venkateswara Creations. Vijay had recently confirmed in an interview that he would be doing a film for Dil Raju’s production, but he didn’t reveal the director’s name. Going by the reports, it looks like Mohana Krishna Indraganti is the frontrunner to helm that project.

It is said that he’s narrated an interesting script to Vijay and he seemed to have given the nod. Mohana Krishna Indraganti is awaiting the release of his current film, V, which happens to be Natural Star Nani’s 25th outing as an actor. V also stars Sudheer Babu, Aditi Rao Hydari and Nivetha Thomas as the other leads. An official word on this new project is awaited. Stay tuned.
