Doctors have reportedly admitted actor Vijay Deverakonda to a hospital after he was diagnosed with dengue, just weeks before his ambitious film Kingdom is set to release. According to media reports, the actor is under medical care and expected to remain hospitalized for a few days while he recovers.
Family Rallies Around Vijay
Without delay, Vijay’s family members rushed to the hospital to support him during this period. Although his team has not issued an official health update, sources suggest his condition is stable and he may be discharged soon.
Vijay’s Kingdom Promotions Take a Back Seat
Vijay had been actively promoting Kingdom, a film that promises to showcase him in a radically different light. Set against the charged backdrop of the Sinhala-Tamil conflict post-Independence, the film explores themes of revenge and resilience. Initially slated for a May 30 release, the film has faced multiple delays. First pushed to July 4, the final release date now stands at July 31.
Fresh Pairings And Fierece Action
In Kingdom, Vijay shares screen space with Bhagyashree Borse in a romantic arc, while actor Satyadev adds dramatic weight in a pivotal role. The movie, directed by Gautham Tinnanuri, combines intense action with a gripping storyline. Vijay’s portrayal of a warrior on a blood-soaked mission has already stirred anticipation among fans.
Legal Storms Cloud his Horizon
Meanwhile, Vijay finds himself entangled in legal controversies. In June, he was booked under the SC/ST Act following remarks made at a public event in Hyderabad. While speaking on Indo-Pak relations, Vijay made a comparison that reportedly offended members of the tribal community. His comment—likening certain groups to “tribals fighting without common sense”—sparked backlash and legal action.
Additionally, the actor was recently named in an illegal betting app scam. Authorities claim he endorsed online platforms that allegedly misled young users and promoted unethical gambling.
Despite these hurdles, Vijay remains the focal point of media attention. From his hospital stay to ongoing legal cases, the actor’s journey toward Kingdom’s release has been anything but smooth. Nevertheless, fans are hopeful that once he recovers, he’ll be back in action—both on screen and off.
