“Vijay Devarakonda rocks the show,” says Allu Arjun

The audio function of the much-hyped film ‘Geeta Govindam’ was held on a grand scale in Hyderabad on Sunday amidst several of his fans. Allu Arjun was the chief guest, while young actor Vijay Devarakando stole the show in his lungi-clad avatar. Produced by Allu Arvind and Bunny Vaas, the family entertainer is being directed by Parashuram. Pretty Rashmika plays the female lead.

Speaking on the occasion, Allu Arjun said “I am here for my manager-turned-producer Bunny Vaas and not for my father Allu Arvind since the former helped me in shaping up my career. I was baffled with Vijay’s fantastic performance in ‘Arjun Reddy’ and he joined the list of great performers in T-town. I watched ‘Geeta Govindam’ just a few days ago and Vijay rocks the show as well as Rashmika and it has shaped up into a good film. Dad buy me a car, if the film rocks the box office,” he said.

In his speech, Vijay Devarakonda, who wore a lungi, said that he was a changed man now. ‘’This film will give me a new image and the family audience will begin to watch my films more often. Before coming to this function, I was told by Allu Arvind, Bunny Vaas and Parashuram that I should hold my horses and also not to make any controversial statements. Hence, I am reluctant to make any harsh statement. However, I am thankful to brother Allu Arjun for gracing the occasion.

Once viewers watch this film, they will have a different opinion about me,” said Vijay Devarankonda, who showed the trolls for his singing on screen at the function and received appreciation for his ‘confidence and attitude’. “My song is retained in the film. I received a mixed response for my new singing abilities on social media,” he added.
