Vijay Devarakonda signed couple of movies before 'Pelli Choopulu' and 'Arjun Reddy' period. He didn't expect that 'Arjun Reddy' would become such phenomenon and signed whatever the offer came his way without thinking. After such highly appreciated 'Pelli Choopulu', he released 'Dwaraka' and it tanked. Now he is readying up to release 'Taxiwala' this May. But one of his old movie 'Ye Mantram Vesave' is haunting him.

The film is directed by Sridhar Marri. Going by the movie stills, it is clear that he signed this film much before 'Pelli Choopulu'. Vijay has been staying away to promote this. However, the makers of 'Ye Mantram Vesave' have now announced that it would hit the screens on March 9.

Unless he clears off these 'backlog' movies, he would not move to the next level. He needs to plan his career in better way since he has got such huge craze among urban youth.
