Vijay Deverakonda was recently seen in Liger, which failed to impress the audience. Despite the failure of this film, Vijay remains undeterred and recently talked about the sportsperson he would like to essay on screen. The Arjun Reddy star said that he would like to enact cricketer Virat Kohli’s role. Vijay expressed this desire during the India-Pakistan match held in Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Vijay said that late actor Sushant Singh Rajput has already essayed the character of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. That’s why he would like to portray Virat Kohli’s role.
