Ananya Panday Opposite Vijay Deverakonda

As we are aware of the news that Bollywood actress, Janhvi Kapoor, would play the female lead in the upcoming Tollywood film Fighter, with Vijay Deverakonda in the lead role. But now, as per the latest update, Ananya Panday will replace Janhvi Kapoor in the upcoming film, directed by Puri Jagannadh. Ananya Pandey is set to make her debut in the Tollywood with this film.

It was rumored that Janhvi Kapoor was offered Rs 3.5 crores as remuneration to work in Fighter. But later she was finding it tough to juggle her dates for the movie, as the actress is busy with multiple projects. Hence, she walked out of the film.

Currently, Vijay Deverakonda is undergoing intense training in mixed martial arts for the action-packed role in the film and is on a strict diet as per the instructions of his trainers. The upcoming film will mark Rowdy's debut in Bollywood.

The pre-production is on and the shooting will begin very soon. The sources say that the rest of the star cast and crew of this film will be officially announced soon.

On the work front, Vijay will be next seen in World Famous Lover (WFL). We hear that it is a romantic tale that will be based on some real-life incidents. KS Rama Rao is bankrolling it under his banner.

Ananya Panday is the daughter of Bollywood actor Chunky Pandey and now she is all set to work with Vijay Deverakonda in Fighter. She has already proved her mettle with both her films, Student of the Year 2 and Pati Patni Aur Wo.
