Director Puri Jagannath is known for his hard-hitting punch dialogues, and for his absolutely stunning presentation of his lead actors. He is often considered to be the master at transforming his heroes into a very stylish and never before seen avatar when compared to the films that the actors had done previously.
Puri is in a similar process right now, with Vijay Deverakonda sporting a completely new and different look for Liger, directed by Puri. The film is being co-produced by Bollywood star producer Karan Johar and features Ananya Panday as the leading lady. Liger is being made on a big budget, on a pan-Indian scale, with boxing legend Mike Tyson playing a key role in the film.
According to the latest reports, Puri, who shares good ties and a close relationship with Nandamuri Balakrishna, is planning to bring the actor onboard, to give voice to Mike Tyson’s character in Liger. The director is yet to approach Balayya, and considering that Balayya recently met with the team of Liger, it is being said that Balayya would likely say yes. If this turns out to be true, then it would be a major asset to Liger on a whole.
