Young and talented Vijay Deverakonda’s claim to fame without any doubt has to be Arjun Reddy which was remade in Hindi by Sandeep Reddy Vanga in the form of Kabir Singh. Now, Vijay’s upcoming film Liger, opposite Ananya Panday, is one of the most anticipated films of the year.

As per Tollywood.net, Vijay’s film Liger audio rights have been acquired by Sony Music India for a whopping amount of Rs 16 cr. It is said to be a fancy deal for a movie of any young actor in recent years.
