Nani Star Status Threatened By Vijay Deverakonda?

Natural star Nani is one of the most sought after actors in Tollywood. He attained huge popularity with Bhale Bhale Magadivoy, Krishna Gadi Veera Prema Gadha, Gentlemen, Ninnu Kori, Majnu, Nenu Local and MCA. With a series of blockbusters, he joined the ranks of top stars of Tollywood. So far, Nani has had a smooth and successful run at the box office.

However, his recent film Krishnarjuna Yuddham, directed by Merlapaka Gandhi fell below par and was seen as an average film.

Meanwhile, his Yevade Subrahmanyam co-star Vijay Deverakonda became the talk of the town. After a decent hit Pelli Choopulu, Arjun Reddy turned into the hottest star in Tollywood on par with the most highly rated stars.

He took a year off for Geetha Govindam and this turned out to be a landmark film for Vijay which evoked a very good response from the audiences. The transformation of an angry young man, Arjun Reddy to the boy next door, Geetha Govindam is seamless.

Vijay has proven that he can perform any role with effortless ease. It is clear that with Vijay's stock going up, producers are making a bee-line to sign him up. Is Nani's position under threat? Now it's high time for Nani to score a hit with his upcoming films Devdas and Jersey to prove his box office stamina, as they say. Who knows he may outperform all the others with his upcoming films?
