Last
year,
the
dashing
Vijay
Deverakonda
became
the
talk
of
the
town
when
Arjun
Reddy
opened
to
a
thunderous
response
at
the
box
office
and
received
rave
reviews
from
all
quarters.
Directed
by
Sandeep
Reddy,
the
black
comedy
featured
him
in
the
role
of
a
rebel
and
served
as
a
strong
proof
of
his
abilities
as
an
actor.
It
also
ruffled
a
few
feathers
and
this
helped
it
become
even
more
popular.
Now,
nearly
a
year
later,
Vijay
Deverakonda
is
in
the
limelight
because
of
his
latest
release
Geetha
Govindam.
The
romantic-comedy
hit
the
screens
on
August
15,
2018,
and
opened
to
a
good
response
at
the
box
office.
Nearly
three
weeks
down
the
line,
it
is
still
the
choice
of
the
fans.
Geetha
Govindam
Reigns
Supreme
Geetha
Govindam
is
still
ruling
the
box
office
although
it
has
slowed
down
a
bit.
The
WOM
is
quite
positive
and
this
might
help
it
remain
the
top
choice
of
the
fans
for
some
time
to
come.
It
will
most
probably
end
its
BO
run
with
a
share
of
Rs
60
Crore.
New
Releases
Fail
To
Make
A
Mark!
The
new
releases
Nartanashala
and
Paper
Boy
failed
to
make
any
kind
of
impact
at
the
box
office.
In
fact,
according
to
some
trade
experts,
their
performance
was
'dismal'
over
the
weekend.
The
poor
response
to
these
films
has
helped
Geetha
Govindam
remain
the
king
of
the
BO.
The
Era
Of
Vijay
Deverakonda
Is
Upon
Us
The
phenomenal
response
to
Geetha
Govindam
proves
that
Arjun
Reddy
was
no
fluke
and
Vijay
Deverakonda
is
indeed
the
choice
of
the
younger
generation.
The
self-made
actor
is
not
afraid
to
experiment
with
his
on-screen
image
and
this
has
added
to
his
popularity
in
a
big
way.
The
buzz
is
that
Vijay
Deverakonda
might
soon
end
up
giving
many
of
his
more
established
contemporaries
sleepless
nights.
The
Way
Ahead...
The
success
of
Geetha
Govindam
has
propelled
Vijay
Deverakonda
to
new
heights.
However,
at
the
same
time,
it
has
created
a
problem
for
the
makers
of
his
movie
Taxiwala.
The
buzz
is
that
Vijay
Deverakonda
wants
the
makers
to
release
it
directly
on
Netflix,
as
it's
a
niche
film
and
might
not
satisfy
a
large
section
of
his
fans.
However,
the
producers
are
keen
on
releasing
it
in
the
theatres.
Either
way,
regardless
to
what
happens
to
Taxiwala,
the
era
of
Vijay
Deverakonda
is
well
and
truly
upon
us.
Enough
said!
