Telugu superstar Vijay Deverakonda will soon make his pan Indian debut with the action flick 'Liger'. In this Dharma Productions venture, Vijay will be seen sharing screen with Ananya Pandey and former boxing champion Mike Tyson. In a recent media event, he talked about working alongside Mike Tyson and compared him with iconic names like Michael Jackson and Bruce Lee.

Apparently, Vijay announced his next film 'Jana Gana Mana' on Tuesday and during the launch event held in Mumbai, he was asked to share his experience of working with Iron Mike.

Deverakonda replied, "Working with him was like a crazy experience. Michael Jackson, Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee and Mike Tyson are all legends on the planet. If you go to any country in the world, people will know them. Michael Jackson’s gone, and Bruce Lee’s gone. We got to work with one legendary personality like Mike Tyson. I got beaten by him, which shook my head but it gave me confidence. It was fun. A lot of experiences I cannot share but they are a memory for life."

'Liger' is going to be a martial arts based film and Tyson will reportedly play the main antagonist in it. It is set to release on 25th of August.
