Vijay Deverakonda hospitalised with dengue ahead of Kingdom release on July 31

Actor Vijay Deverakonda is currently hospitalised after being diagnosed with dengue. He is under medical care and is expected to be discharged in a few days. His family has been by his side during his hospital stay, providing support.

His health setback comes just ahead of the anticipated release of his new film, 'Kingdom'. As Deverakonda recuperates, the film's team continues to prepare for its forthcoming release.

Directed by Gautham Tinnanuri, the action film is set against the backdrop of the post-Independence Sinhala-Tamil conflict. The film explores the refugee crisis resulting from the historical tensions in the region. Initially planned for a May 30 release, 'Kingdom' has experienced delays, pushing the release to



July 4, and now further to July 31. The film's narrative promises a gripping tale, reflecting the intense socio-political climate of the era.

The film's release delays were initially attributed to heightened tensions between India and Pakistan, particularly following the terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22. These events led the makers to reconsider the release timeline of the film.

Despite these challenges, the anticipation for 'Kingdom' remains high among fans. The film also stars Bhagyashree Borse and Satyadev in significant roles. It is backed by Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Creations. With its blend of historical context and dramatic storytelling, the film is poised to attract a wide audience to the theatres.
