After scoring a smashing hit with iSmart Shankar, director Puri Jagannath announced his next film Fighter with Vijay Deverakonda. The film went on the floors earlier this year and then the shoot was halted when the lockdown was announced. Since then, it didn’t resume till now. Initially, it was rumored that the filming will begin in October. When it didn’t happen, the sources said that the shoot will begin in December. Even that didn’t happen though. With these contact postponements, people started wondering about the fate of the project.According to the sources, Fighters has some issues to go back on the floors.
Apparently, the makers need a few foreign fighters to take part in the shoot. Due to the coronavirus crisis, the foreigners are not showing interest to take part in the shoot anytime soon. The makers also wanted to shoot a schedule in America. But the US embassy is not giving visas so easily due to the COVID-19 issues.These factors made the team of Fighter to halt the work all these days. We now hear that everything is getting sorted and mostly, the shoot will resume in January. Ananya Panday is playing the female lead in this movie.
