Karthikeya Interested in Doing Negative Characters

Karthikeya portrayed a villain in Nani's Gang Leader, directed by Vikram K Kumar. Recently during an interview, he expressed his desire to play more negative characters in films. Now as per the latest buzz in the film industry, Karthikeya will essay the role of a villain in Vijay Deverakonda's Fighter, directed by Puri Jagannadh.

Bollywood producer Karan Johar convinced Sridevi’s daughter Janhvi Kapoor to star in Fighter, and the makers are ready to pay a big remuneration to her. The film has a boxing backdrop and the villain too will be a boxer. It means we will see Karthikeya playing boxer in the upcoming film.

There is also a strong buzz in the industry that Karthikeya has been roped in Ajith starrer revenge drama, Valimai, as the villain. If the film clicks, then Karthikeya might become the most wanted actor in South Indian films.

Karthikeya was last seen in 90 ML, directed by Sekhar Reddy Yerra, and bankrolled by Ashok Reddy Gummakonda under the banner of Kartikeya Creative works.
