Arjun Reddy star Vijay Deverakonda recently took to social media to share the first look of his next film World Famous Lover. The Telugu film is being directed by Kranthi Madhav. It stars Raashi Khanna, Catherine Tresa, Aishwarya Rajesh and Isabelle Leite.
The first look reveals an angry and fierce Deverakonda, very reminiscent of his Arjun Reddy avatar. He has a cigarette in his hands, his face is bleeding and his ruffled hair give off a rogue charm.
Take a look:
Last seen playing a student leader in Dear Comrade, it is believed that Vijay essays a traveller in World Famous Lover, which has music by Gopi Sunder.
However, an official announcement regarding the film’s plot is yet to be made.
With the film on the verge of completion, Vijay will soon commence work on his next film called Fighter, with Puri Jagannadh. In the film, he plays a fighter with a stutter. Meanwhile, Vijay awaits the release of his maiden Telugu production venture Meeku Mathrame Cheptha. The film marks the acting debut of filmmaker Tharun Bhascker, who had directed Vijay in Pellichoopulu.
Vijay Deverakonda starred in the film Arjun Reddy. Arjun Reddy was recently remade in Hindi by the same director. The remake is called Kabir Singh and it stars Shahid Kapoor opposite Kiara Advani. Kabir Singh did great at the box office and emerged as one of Shahid’s biggest blockbusters.
