Vijay Deverakonda’s Film Whips Up A Storm At The Box Office Before Release

Liger
is
one
of
the
most
anticipated
movies
of
the
year
and
Vijay
Deverakonda
is
all
set
to
set
the
screens
on
fire
with
this
high-octane
sports-based
action
entertainer
film,
which
is
gearing
up
for
a
release
on
August
25
all
over
the
world.

The
unit
of
Liger
is
about
to
conclude
the
whirlwind
Liger
promotional
tour
around
the
country.
The
Hindi
version
of
the
movie,
which
was
vigorously
promoted
in
northern
parts
of
India
as
well,
is
releasing
a
day
later
than
its
original
scheduled
release.
That
means,
the
movie
will
release
in
Hindi
on
August
26
while
it
will
hit
the
screens
on
August
25
in
all
other
southern
languages.

The
bookings
for
Liger
are
open
and
shows
are
being
sold
out
in
seconds.
There
are
several
shows
in
multiplex
theatres
and
about
90
percent
of
the
screens
are
going
to
play
Liger.
The
trends
are
all
suggesting
a
very
strong
start
for
Liger
both
in
India,
especially
in
the
Telugu
States,
and
in
the
USA.
If
the
film’s
reviews
are
positive,
there
would
be
no
stopping
the
bookings
and
the
movie
will
make
magical
numbers
at
the
box
office.
However,
despite
strong
promotional
activity
across
northern
regions,
the
bookings
are
rather
low,
reported
a
few
entertainment
websites.

Trade
reports
suggest
that
Liger
should
make
about
$1.8
Million
to
reach
the
break-even
point.
The
bookings
have
touched
about
Rs
90
Crore
globally.

In
the
film,
Vijay
Deverakonda
is
seen
in
the
role
of
an
aspiring
Boxing
champion,
who
moves
to
Mumbai
with
her
mother,
played
by
Ramya
Krishnan
from
Karimnagar
in
Telangana.
The
film
stars
legendary
Boxing
Champion
Mike
Tyson
in
a
pivotal
role.

Bollywood
actress
Ananya
Panday
made
her
Tollywood
debut
and
is
cast
opposite
Vijay
as
the
female
lead.
The
movie
also
features
actors
like
Ronit
Roy,
Ali,
and
Makarand
Deshpande
among
others.

Liger
