First, Vijay co-starred with Sudeep in Yograj Bhat’s Ranga SSLC. Following that, he appeared in films like Jogi, Shree, and Ee Rajeev Gandhi Alla. There were additional televised appearances by him.

When his pal Soori made his directorial debut with Duniya, a star was born, and Vijay’s career took off. To play the role of the henchman, Vijay was cast as an innocent rural boy with a kind heart who is kidnapped by criminals. The reviews for his performance were all incredibly positive. Vijay’s performance in the film earned him both the State and Filmfare awards.

Yuga, Chanda, and Geleya were the three further films that featured Vijay in 2007. The action film Yuga, which was made in the same vein as Duniya, bombed at the box office. After Prakash Rai abruptly dropped out of the film, Vijay stepped in to play a supporting character.

The film Chanda that Vijay directed in 2007 brought him even more attention. S. Narayan directed the film, and he purportedly made a deal with Vijay to release it six weeks after Yuga to avoid competition. Vijay had originally planned to contribute his voice for the film, but once the filmmaker broke his word, he backed out. The actor reached an agreement with the KFCC, which resulted in a one-year ban. Vijay’s prohibition from acting in films was lifted after the elders of the “Karnataka Film Federation” intervened. At both the multiplex and the B&C theatres, Chanda raked in huge profits. His daredevil bouts won him the admiration of the “masses.”

For Kavita Lankesh’s semi-art film Avva, which premiered at the beginning of 2008, Vijay lent his talents. Although Vijay received praise for his performance, the film ultimately bombed at the box office. Later in 2008, he was spotted at Sumana Kittur’s Slum Bala, a moderately successful bar.  Action, which was considered Vijay’s strong suit, was lacking in both flicks.

In 2009, Vijay appeared in several action movies, including Thaakath, directed by MR Ramesh, and Junglee, directed by Soori, as well as Devru, directed by Sadhu Kokila. Vijay’s 2010 was no better than 2009, with three films released and only one, Kanteerava, earning above-average reviews and box office returns. Both of the other films, Shankar IPS and Kari Chirathe, were box office bombs. In 2011, however, he returned with the commercially and critically praised Jarasandha, Johny Mera Naam Preethi Mera Kaam, and Veerabahu.

The 2012 film Bheema Theeradalli, in which Vijay appeared, was a critical and commercial success. Vijay’s turn in the film earned him a lot of praise. The 2013 film Rajanikantha bombed at the box office upon its initial release. His subsequent release, the psychological thriller Jayammana Maga, under his production company “Duniya Talkies,” received acclaim from critics and audiences alike. While Shivajinagar only performed moderately at the box office. Lone Simhadri was released that year (2014) as his only film. Jackson, Rx Suri, and Ring Road were all box office successes for him in 2015, but Cobra has been pushed back.

Together with Priyamani, he made his debut in 2016’s Dana Kayonu, a critically acclaimed film directed by Yogaraj Bhat. The movie was a commercial and critical success, revitalising his career. The following album by him to be released was titled Masti Gudi by Nagashekar. At the box office, the film hardly registered.

Soon after Masti Gudi’s debut, Kanaka hit theatres. Success with that film led to his next big hit, also distributed by Duniya talkies: Johnny Johnny Yes Papa. The 2018 film Johnny Johnny Yes Papa, in which he starred, was directed by him. Johny Mera Naam Preethi Mera Kaam is a follow-up to their previous film (2011).

It was an action film, and he directed it alongside his son, Kusti, but later he took over directing duties on his own Salaga film, which had been delayed. His first film as a filmmaker, Salaga, was a major turning point in his career.
