Last week, sources had confirmed to NDTV that Vijay Deverakonda had been hospitalised after being diagnosed with Dengue. He was expected to be discharged soon, as his film Kingdom is also up for release soon.
Now his team has confirmed to Hindustan Times that the actor is recovering well after being released from the hospital.
The team member told Hindustan Times, "Yes, Vijay had dengue. It was initially thought that he had a fever, and he could just recover from it at home. However, once the doctor diagnosed him with dengue, he was moved to a private hospital in Hyderabad for faster recovery. He was there for three days and has now been discharged."
Though Vijay Deverakonda needs to gain back his strength slowly, he's gung-ho about his film Kingdom releasing on July 31, 2025. The actor had shot some of the film's promotional videos earlier, which will be rolled out soon. He will also do media interactions next week.
The trailer of Kingdom will drop on July 26, 2025, while there is a pre-release event that Vijay Deverakonda will attend on July 28, 2025.
