Vijay Deverakonda hospitalized due to dengue ahead of 'Kingdom' release

Actor Vijay Deverakonda has reportedly been hospitalised after being diagnosed with dengue. According to a report from Entertainment AF, the actor, who has been away from the public eye over the past few days, is currently receiving treatment and is expected to be discharged by July 20, sources close to the actor confirmed.

The news comes just ahead of the release of his upcoming film Kingdom, which is scheduled to hit theatres on July 31. Fans had noticed the actor’s absence from promotional events and social media interactions in recent weeks, sparking speculation. Now, with confirmation of his illness, many have taken to social media to send their wishes for a quick recovery.

Though there has been no official statement from Deverakonda or his team, reports suggest that his condition is stable and that he is responding well to treatment. The actor is said to be under observation at a private hospital, and doctors are optimistic about his recovery timeline.

Kingdom marks an important release in Deverakonda’s career. The film, a political action drama, has been generating anticipation with its initial promotional material and teasers. While the actor’s participation in the upcoming promotional schedule is still uncertain, his team is reportedly planning around his recovery.

Deverakonda, who was last seen in The Family Star has had a busy year with multiple projects in various stages of production. His sudden hospitalisation has prompted a pause in some of those activities, but insiders indicate that his upcoming commitments will be reassessed depending on his recovery.

Fans and colleagues from the film industry have started sharing messages of support on social media, wishing him strength and good health. With dengue cases often increasing during monsoon season, Deverakonda’s diagnosis serves as a reminder to take preventive measures and seek timely medical care when symptoms arise.

As of now, the actor’s health is being closely monitored, and further updates are expected in the coming days. Kingdom is also an important release for Deverakonda owing to his last few films bombing at the box office.
