Vijay Deverakonda is once again making headlines, not just for his acting but for his interesting choice of collaborators. His next film, directed by Rahul Sankrityan, has already generated huge buzz thanks to its period drama setting and intriguing cast. Now, fans are even more excited after reports revealed that South African actor Arnold Vosloo – famous for his role in The Mummy (1999) – is being brought on board for a key role.
Although the makers haven’t officially confirmed Arnold Vosloo’s involvement yet, sources say the director was impressed by Arnold’s intense performances and unique screen presence. The addition of an international star adds a new dimension to the film, which is set during the British era in the Rayalaseema region of India.
This marks Vijay Deverakonda’s second major collaboration with a foreign actor, after his work with former boxing champion Mike Tyson in Liger. Vijay has shown a clear interest in taking risks by choosing unconventional roles and experimenting with different genres. For the first time, he will be seen delivering dialogues in the local Rayalaseema dialect, a challenge that has fans curious to see him in a new avatar.
Adding to the excitement is the much-talked-about pairing of Vijay and Rashmika Mandanna in the lead roles. With dating rumours already making headlines, their on-screen pairing is expected to attract even more attention.
Produced by Mythri Movies, the film is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about projects of the year. With an international actor, a period setting, and a popular lead pair, it promises to be a fresh and ambitious venture for Vijay, who is determined to bounce back stronger after his last film’s average performance.
As the project moves forward quietly without official announcements, fans are eagerly waiting to see what this bold mix of talent and story will deliver on screen.
