'It was not easy...': When Vijay Deverakonda recalled challenges he faced before rising to fame - THROWBACK

As an ardent fan of Vijay Deverakonda, I am always in awe of his journey from struggling days to becoming one of the most sought-after actors in Tollywood. His resilience and determination are truly inspiring!

Vijay Deverakonda first gained notice thanks to the success of Arjun Reddy. But even though he’s now a known actor, he struggled in the entertainment industry when he was starting out. A while back, during the promotion for Liger, the performer talked openly about his difficulties and shared his strategies for overcoming them.

Discussing his challenging times, he stated that it represented the toughest ordeal he had ever faced in his life. Vijay Deverakonda expressed that establishing a stage to showcase himself as an actor was equally difficult for him.

Vijay mentioned that he began his acting journey on stage, and shared that he initially believed that proclaiming his desire to be an actor would attract numerous producers. However, he soon discovered that it wasn’t as simple as gaining their attention.

Vijay continued by saying, “On stage, other directors frequently approached me for roles after my performances. However, when I sought entry into the movie industry, I was at a loss as to who to approach or where to go. I spent time scouring websites listing casting calls instead.

Vijay Deverakonda shared his struggles, detailing how he took on a supporting part in a movie which led him to forego opportunities for another year. He disclosed that he, along with some friends and investors, produced a film themselves for approximately 60 lakh rupees, titled Pelli Choopulu. The film turned out to be successful, and he was honored with a National Award for his role in it.

Vijay found that since Arjun Reddy appeared in his life in 2017, he’s had a steady stream of work ever since.

Currently, on the professional side, Vijay Deverakonda is collaborating with director Gowtam Tinnanuri on their upcoming project titled VD12.
