When the going gets tough, the tough get going! Tollywood superstar Vijay Deverakonda, who injured his shoulder while shooting a challenging action scene for Gowtam Tinnanuri’s yet-to-be-titled VD12, refuses to take it easy. The actor, who was last seen with Mrunal Thakur in the Telugu romantic action drama ‘The Family Star’ this year, continues to shoot in between physio and rehab “because there is no time to take a break” in his schedule.

Meanwhile, more than VD12, the film that is exciting Deverakonda fans is the actor’s forthcoming production VD14 with Rahul Sankrityan. Buzz is that South African actor Arnold Vosloo, known for his iconic villainous role in ‘The Mummy’ (1999) and ‘The Mummy Returns’ (2001), will most likely play the baddie in VD14. If Vosloo comes on board, he will be the second international star joining a Deverakonda film after boxing great Mike Tyson in ‘Liger’. VD14 is a period war drama and will tell the story of a short-lived king. It is a high-budget film and will go on the floors in early 2025.
