But in a recent interview with Zoom, the star shared his perspective on what that really means. “I don’t wake up thinking I have to be a ‘game changer’. I just choose stories that excite me, roles that challenge me a little, and that’s what ends up pushing boundaries. If it connects with people and shifts the way we look at cinema, that’s the real win,” he said, summing up his philosophy towards his craft.

What sets Vijay apart is that he doesn’t chase the tag, he earns it with every project. His filmography is proof of his fearless choices, whether it’s stepping into raw, complex characters or experimenting with stories that break away from formula. For him, it’s not about fitting into the mold of a star, but about constantly evolving as an actor and storyteller.

Vijay Deverakonda was last seen recently in the Pan-India movie Kingdom. Directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, the film also starred Bhagyashree Borse, Rukmini Vasanth among others.
