Post Family Star's debacle, Vijay Deverakonda silently starts his new film | Details inside

Vijay Deverakonda's Family Star ended as a massive disappointment at the box office. The family drama started with negative talk from day one of its release and is already out of theatres in Telugu states. Parasuram directed the film, and he narrated it in such an outdated manner that he is being trolled heavily on social media.

Sreeleela walks out of Vijay Deverakonda's next

The shoot started with a fierce action sequence that is being canned in an aluminum factory in Hyderabad. Only Vijay and a few junior artists are taking part in the shoot. This action sequence will be canned for the next few days, and with this, the first schedule will be wrapped up. Sreeleela was supposed to play the female lead but the news is that she has walked out of the film.

Sithara Entertainments, headed by Naga Vamsi, is bankrolling this film, which has music by Anirudh. Vijay Deverakonda will be seen in the role of a cop in this film, which has two heroines playing the female lead. The names of these heroines will be announced in the days to come.

This is the first time that Vijay Deverakonda will be seen in the role of a cop and there is a solid buzz in the fans as Gowtam is known for his sensible making and brings out solid emotions in all his films. On the other hand, Family Star will stream on Amazon Prime from May first week of 2024. Watch this space for more updates on this project.
