As Vijay Deverakonda’s much-awaited spy action drama Kingdom gears up for its theatrical release on July 31, 2025, the Andhra Pradesh government has approved a special hike in ticket prices.

Grand promotions lined up ahead of release

The makers of 'Kingdom' are going full throttle with promotions. The film’s trailer is scheduled to be launched in Tirupati on July 26, setting the tone for a larger promotional wave. A pre-release event is expected to follow two days later. Starring Bhagyashri Borse opposite Vijay, the film marks her debut in a prominent Tollywood release.

Vijay Deverakonda to join promotions after health recovery

While fans have been eagerly waiting for Vijay Deverakonda to step into the spotlight, recent reports revealed that the actor had been diagnosed with dengue. He has since been discharged and is expected to begin promotional activities in the final week leading up to the release. One of the planned highlights includes an appearance in a special chat segment with director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, further tying into the film’s high-octane lead-up.

Directed by Jersey filmmaker Gowtam Tinnanuri, 'Kingdom' is set against the backdrop of the post-Independence Sinhala-Tamil conflict. It tells the story of a rising leader who must protect his people amid escalating tensions. With music by Anirudh Ravichander—his first collaboration with Vijay and a reunion with Gowtam—the film is reportedly forming the first half of a planned duology. The movie is also expected to mark the comeback of Vijay Deverakonda who had several underwhelming outings including 'Liger', 'The Family Star' and many others.
