After a disaster like ‘World Famous Lover’, Vijay Devarakonda took a small gap and started his bilingual film with dashing director Puri Jagannadh. This film is being made simultaneously in Telugu as well as Hindi. Tentatively titled ‘Fighter’, this movie marks the debut of Devarakonda into Bollywood. The shooting came to a halt due to lockdown and it is yet to begin but there is a small update coming out and it is worrying Devarakonda’s ‘Rowdy’ fans.
‘Fighter’ is said to be an action flick that is based on the relation between father and son. Action king Arjun is reportedly playing the father’s role. Though Arjun is a terrific performer who has craze in many languages, his track record as a character artist is worrying the rowdies. Arjun did a special role in ‘Sri Anjaneyam’ which was a failure and he then did a negative role in ‘LIE’ which was a disappointment too. He played the role of Allu Arjun’s dad in ‘Naa Peru Surya’ and we all know what happened.
After flops like ‘Dear Comrade’ and ‘World Famous Lover’, Devarakonda is in need of a big hit right now and Puri’s film can either take him to the next level or bring him down. Let us wait and see if the bad run of Arjun works on ‘Fighter’ or not.
