About Rahul Sankrityan’s Directorial VD14

According to a report by India Today, VD14 will be helmed by Shyam Singha Roy fame Rahul Sankrityan.

The India Today report also stated that the actors were supposed to begin shooting next week. However, as Vijay was diagnosed with dengue, the schedule has been postponed. Rashmika is currently shooting for Thama and will begin filming the tentatively titled project soon, alongside both films.

The collaboration between Rahul Sankrityan and Vijay Deverakonda was announced in May 2024.

Other details of the film have been kept under wraps. In May, a poster featuring Vijay in a dhoti, with long hair and battle scars on his back, set in a temple-like backdrop, was released.

The movie will mark Rahul Sankrityan’s second directorial project after his acclaimed supernatural horror film Shyam Singha Roy.

On the Work Front

Rashmika is currently busy with upcoming movies like The Girlfriend and Mysaa. On the other hand, Vijay will next be seen in the spy-action thriller Kingdom, co-starring Bhagyashri Borse and Satyadev, followed by SVC 59, which is also in the works. 

Earlier, Rashmika Mandanna shared a heartfelt note for Vijay Deverakonda ahead of the release of Kingdom, which stars Vijay in the lead. She wrote,

“Vijay Deverakonda, I always keep telling you—you are something else! One day, I wish I learn my craft so well that I can do even 50% of what you do. You are just… something else.”

The message intensified the rumours of the actors dating.

Deverakonda’s Kingdom is an action-packed Telugu film directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri. Vijay will be seen in the role of an undercover agent torn between his loyalty to the country and his love for his family.

The movie features Bhagyashri Borse as the female lead and actor Satyadev in a pivotal role as well.

The music for the film is composed by Anirudh Ravichander, marking his first collaboration with Vijay and his second with director Tinnanuri after Jersey.
