Abstract: We study the dual equivalence between the nonlinear generalization of the self-dual ($NS{D}_{BwedgeF}$) and the topologically massive $BwedgeF$ models with particular emphasis on the nonlinear electrodynamics proposed by Born and Infeld. This is done through a dynamical gauge embedding of the nonlinear self-dual model yielding to a gauge invariant and dynamically equivalent theory. We clearly show that nonpolinomial $NS{D}_{BwedgeF}$ models can be mapped, through a properly defined duality transformation, into $T{M}_{BwedgeF}$ actions. The general result obtained is then particularized for a number of examples, including the Born-Infeld-BF (BIBF) model that has experienced a revival in the recent literature.
