There is a buzz in the media is that filmmaker Puri Jagannadh had first approached Kannada star Yash to star in 'Liger', but the actor has rejected his offer. It is rumoured that Puri had approached the 'KGF' star with the offer of playing the lead role in 'Liger'. He had even offered a whopping remuneration to the star actor for his big debut in Bollywood. But the actor politely turned down the offer.
'Liger' has failed to meet expectations and is heading to incur losses to its distributors. Starring Vijay Deverakonda and Ananya Pandey in the lead, the film received a lukewarm response at the box office. It was made on a lavish scale and was even promoted as boxing legend Mike Tyson's first Indian film. Backed by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, the film also stars Ramya Krishnan.
'Liger' revolves around a young guy, Liger (Vijay) and his widowed mother Balamani (Ramya Krishnan), who have come from Telangana to Mumbai because she wants to see her son become a national MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) champion. Vijay underwent mixed martial arts training in Thailand while he prepared for his character in Liger. The film was shot simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi. Besides Telugu, Vijay has dubbed his lines in Hindi as well.
Vijay is now gearing up for 'Khushi' next to Samantha Ruth Prabhu. He also has 'Jana Gana Mana'.
