Earlier, talking about his Bollywood debut, Vijay Deverakonda said he has started shooting the film and he will dub his own lines for its Hindi version, reported newsy agency PTI. "I've started shooting for my first pan-Indian film with Puri Jagannadh. It's a project that required me to undergo drastic physical transformation and I've been working non-stop to pull off the character. I play a fighter and the role required me to learn mixed martial arts," he told PTI.
Charmme Kaur and Karan Johar (who will present the Hindi version of the film) announced the project in January.
On the work front, Ananya Panday was last seen in Pati Patni Aur Woh while Vijay Deverakonda's last release is World Famous Lover.
