Double treat for Vijay Deverakonda fans
First up is VD14, a period action drama directed by Rahul Sankrityan and jointly produced by Mythri Movie Makers and T-Series. Set during the British colonial era between 1854 and 1878, the film promises a gripping narrative rooted in true events. Deverakonda appears in a meditative and intense avatar in the newly released poster, sparking intrigue. Rashmika Mandanna stars opposite him, with producers Naveen Yerneni, Y. Ravi Shankar, Bhushan Kumar, and Krishan Kumar backing the grand-scale production. The shoot is expected to begin shortly.
Simultaneously, another untitled film under the banner of Sri Venkateswara Creations was also unveiled, helmed by Ravi Kiran Kola, known for his debut Raja Vaaru Rani Gaaru. Produced by Dil Raju and Shirish, this rural action drama is also being planned as a massive pan-India venture. The poster, rich in intensity and rustic appeal, showcases Deverakonda in a fierce new light.
Both announcements, dropping on the star's birthday, have left fans elated and heightened anticipation for what's next. With back-to-back ambitious projects in the pipeline, Vijay Deverakonda is set to roar across screens in two vastly different yet equally powerful roles. Regular shoots for both films are expected to begin soon.

Badshah SLAMS Man Eating KFC In ISKCON Restaurant: ‘Even the Chicken Would Be Embarrassed'
Badshah responds to viral video of a man eating KFC chicken in ISKCON's vegetarian restaurant. The rapper slams the act, calling it disrespectful. Rapper and actor Badshah has strongly condemned a viral video that has left many Indians outraged. The video, which shows an African-British man entering Govinda's—a pure vegetarian restaurant operated by ISKCON—and eating KFC chicken inside the premises, has sparked a storm of criticism online for what many believe was a deliberate act of provocation. In the clip, the man is seen asking the restaurant staff if they serve meat. When informed that the venue is strictly vegetarian, he dramatically pulls out a KFC box from his backpack, places it on the counter, and begins eating the chicken in full view of the diners. What stirred more anger was the fact that he allegedly began offering the chicken to other patrons, many of whom were visibly uncomfortable. Horrendous. 😳😡This African-British youth entered into ISKCON's Govinda restaurant – knowingly that it's pure Veg restaurant – asked if there's meat available, then pulled out his KFC box and not only ate chicken (chewed like a 🐷), but also offered others working/eating in… — Tathvam-asi (@ssaratht) July 19, 2025 Despite being asked to leave, the man continued his antics until security was called. He was then escorted out, but not before continuing to cause a scene. As the video went viral across social media, reactions poured in, with netizens calling out the act as 'disrespectful," 'insensitive," and 'calculated." Badshah, never one to shy away from speaking his mind, took to X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, July 20, and posted a sharp response. He wrote, 'Even the chicken would be embarrassed. Dude wasn't hungry for chicken, he was hungry for some 🩴 on that face." Even the chicken would be embarrassed. Dude wasnt hungry for chicken, he was hungry for some 🩴 on that face. True strength is in respecting what you dont understand. — BADSHAH (@Its_Badshah) July 20, 2025 The witty yet biting comment was followed by a more reflective note. 'True strength is in respecting what you don't understand." Badshah's words seemed to resonate with many users who applauded him for calling out the act while reinforcing the importance of cultural respect. While the identity of the man in the video remains unconfirmed, the backlash has been swift and widespread. ISKCON followers and members of the public alike have expressed their disappointment, with some suggesting legal action be taken. Badshah, who has millions of followers and fans, is known for his chart-topping songs and lively social media presence. Whether it's calling out online trolls or commenting on cultural issues, the rapper often uses his platform to speak up. On the professional front, he was recently seen as a judge on the singing reality show Indian Idol and is reportedly part of the cast of the upcoming film Sunny Sanskaari Ki Tulsi Kumari, starring Janhvi Kapoor and Varun Dhawan.

Aditya Roy Kapur came in shorts, chappals with socks: Director Mohit Suri recalls meeting Aashiqui 2 star for first time
Filmmaker Mohit Suri has been basking in the success of his recently released film, Saiyaara, these days. Suri is best known for directing Aashiqui 2, which has received cult status over the years. The director recently recalled meeting Aditya Roy Kapur for the first time during the casting process of their 2013 musical romantic drama. Mohit Suri remembers his first meeting with Aditya Roy Kapur In a recent podcast with Siddharth Kannan on his YouTube channel, Mohit Suri shared an anecdote of his first meeting with Aditya Roy Kapur during the making of Aashiqui 2. Suri took us back to its casting days when the Aashiqui 2 team had organized a talent hunt to choose the lead pairs for the 2013 movie. One of Mohit Suri's assistants had invited Aditya Roy Kapur to meet the director. Suri recalled that the actor didn't even know him back then. Kapur went to meet the filmmaker after Ranbir Kapoor advised him to do so. Recalling his first interaction with the Aashiqui 2 star, Mohit Suri shared that he showed up in shorts and a shirt and had chappals with socks on. "Main jab usse baat kar raha tha, wo ek revolving chair mein ghum raha tha (While I was talking to him, he was spinning around in a revolving chair)," the director added. Here's how Aditya Roy Kapur impressed Mohit Suri for the role in Aashiqui 2 In the same podcast, Mohit Suri recounted that while his assistants were "offended" by Aditya Roy Kapur's behavior, he had a different perspective. The Saiyaara director was impressed by Kapur's casual style of coming on a bike and imagined him as Rahul Jaykar arriving in a Range Rover. A brief about Aashiqui 2 Produced under the banners of Vishesh Films and T-Series Films, Aashiqui 2 delved into a turbulent romantic relationship between Rahul Jaykar, a failing musician, and Aarohi Keshav Shikre, an aspiring singer. Aditya Roy Kapur played the role of Rahul, and Shraddha Kapoor was cast as his love interest, Aarohi, in the 2013 release. It turned out to be a blockbuster. Aashiqui 2 was a spiritual successor to Aashiqui, which was released in 1990.
