VDxShouryuv: Big Announcement
Vijay Deverakonda took to social media to reveal his next collaboration with Hi Nanna director Shouryuv, tentatively titled VDxShouryuv. Sharing the announcement poster, the actor introduced the global team working on the project and described it as an “intimidating film.”
In his own electric words, Deverakonda wrote: “My next is #VDxShouryuv. So happy to have this firecracker global team working on this one with Shouryuv on his wild imagination and intense heart. ROAR my friends. I will give you my all.”
What Does the Poster Tell Us?
The intriguing poster carries the tagline “All this anger was once loved,” with the words love and anger highlighted in red. It features multiple men carrying varied weapons, all led by Vijay — dressed like a royalty, adorned in gold jewellery, and holding four powerful dogs on a leash.
Dark, cinematic, and loaded with symbolism — this is clearly a departure from anything Shouryuv has done before, and it has every VD fan counting down already.

Who Is Director Shouryuv?
Shouryuv made a massive emotional impact with Hi Nanna (2023), a deeply moving Telugu film starring Nani and Mrunal Thakur. The film was celebrated for its heartfelt storytelling and sensitive portrayal of a father-daughter bond. His pivot to what appears to be a raw, intense, and darker narrative with Vijay Deverakonda is a jaw-dropping creative leap — and that’s precisely what makes VDxShouryuv so exciting.

What About Ranabaali First?
Before VDxShouryuv rolls out, fans have another massive VD spectacle to look forward to. Ranabaali is a period drama set in 19th-century colonial India, directed by Rahul Sankrityan and inspired by historical events in the Rayalaseema region. Vijay plays the fierce titular freedom fighter, with his wife Rashmika Mandanna portraying warrior Jayamma. International actor Arnold Vosloo plays the villain, Sir Theodore Hector.
Ranabaali is scheduled for a pan-India theatrical release on September 11, 2026, across Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada.
Two massive films, one superstar, endless excitement — it’s a great time to be a Vijay Deverakonda fan.
Why This Collaboration Has Fans Buzzing
The pairing of VD’s raw screen presence and Shouryuv’s emotional depth — now channelled into something clearly more fierce and action-driven — is a combination nobody knew they needed until now. The poster alone suggests a film that’s going to demand your full attention from frame one.
