Despite heavy promotion as a "Pan-India" film, Liger was largely panned by critics and audiences.
The film was a major financial failure, grossing approximately ₹60.80 crore against a massive budget of roughly ₹125 crore. Technical File Details
Vijay Deverakonda, Ananya Panday, Ramya Krishna, Ronit Roy, and a cameo by Mike Tyson. Plot Summary
The story follows a street fighter named Liger (Vijay Deverakonda) who lives with his widowed mother in Mumbai. Despite having a stammer, he is determined to become a world-renowned Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighter like his idol, Mark Anderson.
Critics cited a "mindless" plot, jaded treatment, and poor performances—particularly Ananya Panday's—as major drawbacks. It became the lowest-rated Indian film of 2022 on IMDb shortly after its release.
Under the guidance of his mother and a strict MMA coach, Liger rises through the national ranks.
