Vijay Deverakonda's Serious Philosophy!Vijay Deverakonda is one of the very few self-made stars in Telugu cinema. He is currently working on his maiden pan-India project Liger, an action-oriented sports drama directed by Puri Jagannadh.

Coming to the topic, Vijay has shared a philosophical quote which almost perfectly encapsulates his journey to the top.

“Behind the pretty clothes is a body exhausted, in pain, hurting, cramping and bruised. Behind the face you see, is ambition, dreams and a fire that keep pushing me forward! Work. Work Hard. Outwork everybody,” Vijay tweeted. He also shared a snap of himself in a dapper look.

As for Liger, Vijay plays a boxer in the much-hyped actioner which has Bollywood actress Ananya Panday in the female lead role. The unit recently commenced a new schedule in Goa.
