Vijay Deverakonda and Parasuram's previous collaboration, Geetha Govindam, soared to great heights, emerging as one of the biggest blockbusters in Telugu cinema in terms of return on investment. Now, this dynamic duo is set to captivate audiences once again with their latest venture, Family Star, which is on the brink of release. Starring the talented Mrunal Thakur as the female lead, the recently unveiled trailer has already ignited a wave of excitement among eager viewers.

Rumors circulating within the film industry suggest that Family Star may boast a lengthy runtime of 160 minutes (2 hours and 40 minutes). While awaiting official confirmation regarding the runtime and censor certificate, it's worth noting that a longer duration can be justified if the screenplay is gripping and manages to hold the audience's attention throughout. Interestingly, Vijay Deverakonda's previous film, Kushi, also maintained a similar runtime, indicating the actor's adeptness with such durations.

During his promotional tour for Family Star, Vijay Devarakonda made a surprising revelation about the film—it's a biopic. He shared that the movie holds a special place in his heart and will resonate with audiences. Vijay expressed his gratitude for being part of such a compelling story and disclosed that it is, in fact, a biopic. However, the biopic isn't about a famous personality but about the film's director, Parasuram. Parasuram drew inspiration from his own life experiences to create this captivating narrative, adding an extra layer of depth to the film and making it even more special for fans.

Expanding its reach beyond Telugu cinema, Family Star is set to make a splash in Tamil and Hindi as well, aiming to capture a broader audience base. With the proven track record of success from Vijay Deverakonda and Parasuram's previous collaboration, expectations are high for Family Star to make waves across all three languages and continue their streak of delivering blockbuster hits.
