Vijay
Deverakonda,
last
seen
in
the
box
office
dud
Dear
Comrade,
will
soon
be
teaming
up
with
ace
filmmaker
Puri
Jagannadh
for
a
commercial
movie,
tentatively
titled
'Fighter'.
The
film,
featuring
the
'Rowdy'
in
the
role
of
an
MMA
fighter,
is
likely
to
have
all
the
ingredients
needed
to
make
it
a
solid
entertainer.
Now,
here
is
some
big
news
for
movie
buffs.
As
per
a
leading
website,
Puri
Jagannadh
wanted
to
make
the
movie
with
Jr
NTR.
However,
things
did
not
work
out
as
the
'Young
Tiger'
did
not
like
the
script
at
all.
The
buzz
is
that
Puri
Jagannadh
has
tweaked
the
script
a
bit
to
suit
Vijay
Deverakonda's
image,
which
might
make
a
big
difference.
The
Paisa
Vasool
director
recently
returned
to
form
with
iSmart
Shankar
that
fared
well
at
the
box
office.
As
such,
working
with
him
might
be
a
wise
move
on
the
young
star's
part.
Meanwhile,
Vijay
Deverakonda
is
currently
working
on
a
romantic-entertainer
featuring
Raashi
Khanna
and
Aishwarya
Rajesh
as
the
female
leads.
The
Arjun
Reddy
star
will
also
be
reviving
Hero
that
has
not
been
shelved.
He
was
also
offered
the
Hindi
remake
of
Dear
Comrade,
backed
by
Karan
Johar,
but
he
reportedly
turned
it
down
as
he
did
not
want
to
play
the
same
character
again.
