Ranabaali To Create Magic in Bollywood?

Getting success in the Hindi market is not easy for any South Indian actor. However, Vijay Deverakonda already has a strong fan base in North India. His popularity grew after his films reached Hindi-speaking audiences through television and digital platforms. Now, his upcoming film Ranabaali has all the important factors to attract the Bollywood audience.

Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna recently appeared together in their first Hindi podcast with popular host Shubhankar Mishra. The podcast was made as part of the promotions for Ranabaali and has created huge interest on social media.

The podcast has reportedly crossed 150 million views across platforms. The episode shared on Shubhankar Mishra’s Instagram page alone has received more than 100 million views. On YouTube, the podcast crossed over 5 million views within just 24 hours.

The response on Facebook and other social media pages has also been very strong. When the reach through meme pages and other platforms is included, the podcast has reportedly crossed more than 500 million views collectively. This shows the level of curiosity among audiences about Vijay, Rashmika and Ranabaali.

Vijay is not a new face for the Hindi audience. His film Liger was released with the aim of introducing him to a wider pan-India audience. However, the film did not perform as expected at the box office. Despite that setback, Vijay continued to remain popular among North Indian fans.

Now, Ranabaali could give him another opportunity to make a strong impact in the Hindi market. His popularity, Rashmika’s huge following and the growing curiosity around the film are working in its favour.

Directed by Rahul Sankrityan, Ranabaali is planned as a major pan-India film. The movie is scheduled to release worldwide on October 16 during the Vijayadashami festive season.

The massive response to the Hindi podcast has already created a positive buzz. If Ranabaali connects well with audiences, Vijay Deverakonda could finally make a strong mark in Bollywood and take his pan-India image to the next level.
