Hyderabad, Nov 2: Telugu actor Anand Deverakonda has partaken in a puja and sought blessings for his upcoming film ‘Duet’ where he has paired with director Mithun Varadharaja Krishnan. The puja marked the official commencement of the film.

The details are largely kept under wraps , though the movie is apparently said to be a 2024 release.

The actor’s brother Vijay Deverakonda on the other hand was last seen in the film ‘Khushi’, and will next be seen in the films ‘Family Star’ and an untitled project set for 2024.
