Let’s get one thing straight — Vijay Deverakonda isn’t just an actor; he’s a full-blown phenomenon. A lethal mix of talent, charm, and that ‘can’t take-my-eyes-off-you’ screen presence, Vijay has owned every frame he’s stepped into. From brooding bad boys to cinnamon-roll sweethearts, he’s made audiences swoon, sob, and scream more times than we can count. As he gears up to go full throttle in Kingdom — rugged, massy, and action-packed — fans are bracing for a new side of VD. But let’s be real – it’s his romantic avatars that live rent-free in our hearts. So, on his birthday, let’s rewind the reel and revisit the roles that made us fall head-over-heels for our Rowdy Boy.
Arjun Reddy
The role that broke rules — and hearts. As the emotionally unstable yet magnetic Dr. Arjun, Vijay gave us a masterclass in intense, flawed love. He was toxic and terrific. This was the moment the country collectively went, “Who is this guy?!”
Geetha Govindam
Rowdy goes soft. Vijay’s turn as the adorably awkward Vijay Govind was totally opposite from Arjun — polite, patient, and pure gold. He gave us butterflies with every bashful smile and redefined the modern-day good guy.
Dear Comrade
Vijay as Bobby is pure fire. Passionate, protective, a little too intense, but deeply moving. His fiery chemistry with Rashmika lit up the screen, while his vulnerable side added all the feels.
World Famous Lover
One film, four flavors of Vijay. From a smoldering coal miner to a heartbroken writer in Paris — he flexed his romantic muscles and emotional range in a bold, genre-bending experiment. Not your typical love story, but one for the books.
Taxiwala
Who says ghosts and romance don’t mix? As Shiva, Vijay brought sass, swag, and supernatural charm — with a dash of flirty fun. Surely, it was paranormal – but his lovey-dovey side still peeked through the spooky chaos.
Kushi
Opposite Samantha, Vijay brought out the big romantic guns — vulnerability, wit, and that undeniable spark. As Viplav, he navigated love in the age of ideological clashes, showing us, that romance isn’t dead — it just needs a Deverakonda touch.
Dwaraka
A classic where a conman is mistaken for a godman. But amidst the madness, Vijay’s sweet pursuit of love gave us a soft, goofy hero with a heart of gold. Underrated gem, certified loverboy vibes.
So, here’s to Vijay Deverakonda — the man who gave romance a rowdy upgrade. Whether he’s making us cry, blush, or binge-watch his movies on loop, one thing’s for sure — no one does love quite like VD. Happy Birthday, Rowdy!
