Vijay Deverakonda might be pissed off in recent times, regarding the alleged fake news being written about him by a few websites, against whom he had initiated a campaign and procured the support of fellow industry people, nevertheless, things are looking up for the young hero as he becomes the first South Indian star to net seven million followers on Instagram.
The star has put up 163 posts on Instagram and hasn't been following anyone. As far as the professional end of things are concerned, the 'Rowdy' is stepping into Bollywood with Puri Jagannadh directorial Fighter, which is also being made in Telugu and is supported up North by Karan Johar. Ananya Pandey plays the leading lady.
Earlier, reacting to the fake news that had been propagated against him by a few websites reportedly, he had put up a video in which he had remarked: When someone who is supposed to be the guardian of truth lies to you or betrays your trust, intentionally - the society is in danger. This video is my responsibility to my people. Meanwhile, you are welcome to continue trying to end my career, destroy my image, write nonsense about me.
Chiranjeevi came out in support of VD and this garnered the praise of Nagarjuna who took to Twitter and said,
