Actor Vijay Deverakonda is celebrating a special milestone in his career. The actor made his breakthrough as a lead actor after years of struggle in the 2016 release, Pelli Choopulu. The date of release was July 29. Now ten years later, the actor is reflecting on his journey in the industry.
Vijay pens note on completing 10 years
Taking to X, he shared a series of pictures and videos from the shoot of the film. In one video, the actor shared how he had to come on set at around 6.30 AM for a 7 AM shoot. In the note, he said, “10 years. Something feels very strange about reading that 10 years ago we all met in the theatres :) that we laughed and fell in love and formed a bond that keeps us together till today. Something feels very heavy.”
He added, “That day meant to a young me more than anything that has occured since. It gave a young free rebellious boy an acknowledgment and strength.. That he wasn’t a fool to dream or believe. I love you all, my Telugu audience dearly. But more than anything Tharun. I miss you so much man.. and love you so dearly. I am so proud of you and blessed to have made this film with you and you are one precious soul.” He went on to thank the cast and crew of the film which went on to win two National Awards that year.
