Vijay’s next is a period-action drama, set during the post-Independence era

Actor Vijay Kumar has signed his next with Guru Shishyaru director Jadesh Kumar Hampi. The film, temporarily titled VK-29, is touted to be a period action drama set in the post-Independence era.
Jadesh says, “The tides have turned for the Kannada film industry. We are now looking at making more films with a pan-India approach. VK-29, too, will be a large canvas film. Vijay has a mass fan following and period dramas are a big right now. Ours is based on a real incident.”

“Vijay will play a common man who rises to the occasion and brings about the revolution that changes the landscape of society. We are doing some research on his looks as it is set in a different time period,” Jadesh adds.
Vijay is presently busy with his directorial project, Bheema. VK-29 will take off after he wraps up the project, in the next two months.
