In a very short span, actor Vijay Devarakonda has gained immense popularity and achieved star status. The actor also has a 100 Cr-club film to his credit. Currently, he works on Bharat Kamma's 'Dear Comrade' which has Rashmika Mandanna paired opposite him. The latest we hear from the tinsel town is that Vijay is most likely to be the 'Gully Boy' of Tollywood.


Yes, if the reports are to be believed, the super hit Hindi film 'Gully Boy' featuring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt is getting remade into Telugu with Vijay Devarakonda. The original film directed by Zoya Akhtar was made on a budget of 40 Cr, but it went to collect around 230 Cr at Box-office. Earlier, some reports emerged that Sai Dharam Tej was approached for this remake. But, it didn't materialize due to the reasons best known to makers. The Film Nagar is abuzz with news that discussion with Vijay Devarakonda is already on. However, there is no official confirmation in this regard.


On the other hand, Vijay is seriously working on Kranthi Madhav's untitled movie and is likely to team with Majili director Shiva Nirvana for a new project.
