Did Vijay Deverakonda also direct his film 'World Famous Lover'?

Telugu star Vijay Deverakonda recently had a Valentine Day release for his film World Famous Lover. The film features Raashi Khanna, Aishwarya Rajesh, Izabelle Leite, and Catherine Tresa. The movie is an anthology romantic drama released across theatres on February 14, 2020. 

Like his previous films Dear Comrade and Meeku Maathrame Cheptha, fans were pretty excited to catch their hero in action. Despite the fan buzz around, the film received an underwhelming response at the Box Office over its first weekend. According to rumours, actor Vijay Deverakonda has now reshot a few scenes from the film because he was not happy with how it turned out to be.
