Though
Vijay
Deverakonda
hasn't
tasted
commercial
success
for
a
while
now,
the
handsome
actor
is
still
very
much
in
demand.
His
last
outing,
World
Famous
Lover,
tanked
so
miserably
at
the
box
office
that
many
distributors
even
demanded
a
refund
for
the
losses
that
they
suffered.
Despite
all
this,
Vijay
bagged
Puri
Jagannadh's
directorial
venture
Fighter
which
is
being
produced
by
Karan
Johar.
Currently,
the
30-year-old
is
busy
shooting
for
Fighter
which
co-stars
Bollywood
actress
Ananya
Panday
in
the
lead.
The
Pan-India
movie
is
expected
to
release
in
the
second
half
of
2020
and
everyone
is
obviously
excited
about
Vijay
sharing
screen
space
with
Ananya
for
the
very
first
time.
While
Deverakonda
will
wrap
up
the
movie
around
July,
there
is
already
some
buzz
regarding
his
next
project.
Yes,
you
heard
that
right.
As
per
a
report
in
Tollywood.net,
Vijay
has
been
approached
by
Palasa
1978
fame
director
Karuna
Kumar.
Apparently,
Allu
Aravind
was
so
impressed
with
the
filmmaker
and
his
style
of
work
that
he
not
only
agreed
to
produce
his
next
venture
but
also
asked
him
to
get
Vijay
onboard
for
the
same.
That's
how
Kumar
ended
up
narrating
a
story
to
the
talented
young
actor
and
the
latter
has
even
shown
interest
in
doing
the
film.
The
report
further
says
that
Vijay
has
asked
Karuna
Kumar
to
make
few
changes
to
the
script
and
then
if
everything
falls
into
place,
the
actor
will
go
ahead
and
sign
on
the
dotted
line.
The
said
movie
will
be
produced
under
the
banner
of
Geetha
Arts
and
it
will
be
Vijay's
third
collaboration
with
them.
