Following the underwhelming performance of his recent film “Family Star,” Vijay Deverakonda is wasting no time in his pursuit of a comeback. Initial hopes for “Family Star” were high, but the box office takings dipped significantly after the opening weekend. Despite this setback, Deverakonda is determined to return to form and has reportedly begun filming for his next project with director Goutham Tinnanuri.
This untitled film, which marks the first collaboration between Deverakonda and Tinnanuri (known for his work on “Jersey”), has generated substantial interest. Deverakonda will portray a police officer in the movie, with Tinnanuri crafting a gripping narrative. Details suggest that the production has planned two extensive shooting schedules in Hyderabad, aiming to complete a significant portion of the film during this period.
While actress Sreeleela was initially announced as the female lead and even participated in the film’s launch ceremony, reports now indicate she is no longer associated with the project. The team is currently seeking a new actress to fill the role. The film is being bankrolled by Naga Vamsi under the Sithara Entertainments banner. This project is expected to be one of several upcoming announcements from Deverakonda, signifying his commitment to a busy work schedule.
