Handsome
hunk
and
Tollywood
actor
Vijay
Deverakonda
is
all
set
to
make
his
debut
in
Bollywood
with
Puri
Jagannadh’s
directorial
venture

Liger,
which
is
releasing
on
August
25,
2022,
in
Hindi,
Tamil,
Telugu,
Malayalam
and
Kannada.
The
pan-India
film
has
already
started
creating
a
solid
buzz
amongst
the
masses,
and
the
film’s
lead
actors
Vijay
Deverakonda
and
Ananya
Panday
are
not
leaving
any
stone
unturned
in
promoting
the
film.

Talking
about
Vijay
Deverakonda,
the
actor
shot
to
fame
with
his
outstanding
performance
in

Arjun
Reddy.
His
performance
grabbed
everyone’s
attention
including
Karan
Johar.
As
we
all
know,

Liger
is
being
produced
by
KJo,
but
many
people
don’t
know
that
the
Bollywood
producer
had
offered
a
Hindi
film
to
Vijay
before

Liger.

Recently,
at
a
press
conference
in
Hyderabad,
Vijay
Deverakonda
revealed
that
he
had
turned
down
the
offer.
He
said,
“After
watching
Arjun
Reddy,
Karan
Johar
offered
me
to
do
a
Bollywood
film.
But,
back
then,
I
was
not
ready.
Now,
we
approached
him
with

Liger
as
it
has
a
pan-India
appeal.
He
supported
us
well
in
every
aspect.”

After
Vijay
Deverakonda’s
statement,
fans
have
started
to
wonder
which
movie
it
was.
Coming
back
to

Liger,
Vijay
Deverakonda
worked
hard
to
build
his
physique
to
play
the
role
of
a
boxer
in

Liger.
The
film
also
stars
Ramya
Krishnan
and
Ronit
Roy
in
key
roles.
Deverakonda
fans
are
eager
to
witness
his
never-seen-before
avatar
on
the
big
screen
in
his
first
pan-India
film.
