Vijay Deverakonda jokes about 'kidnapping' Anirudh for 'Kingdom'
Vijay Deverakonda is gearing up for his new film Kingdom, hitting theaters July 31, 2025.
At a Chennai event, he couldn't stop raving about composer Anirudh Ravichander's music—joking that he'd love to "kidnap" Anirudh because his creative input means so much to the film's vibe and public buzz.
Deverakonda on 'Kingdom' and his Tamil Nadu fanbase
Deverakonda made it clear Kingdom isn't your usual blockbuster like KGF—it's an action drama centered on an undercover cop trying to take down his own brother's criminal empire, with plenty of family tension.
This marks the first time Deverakonda and Anirudh are teaming up.
The cast also includes Satyadev and Bhagyashree Borse, and Deverakonda gave a shoutout to his Tamil Nadu fans for their support after Kushi.
