The highly anticipated collaboration between Jr NTR and Prashanth Neel, which was announced back in 2024, is finally set to begin filming this month, sparking a fresh wave of excitement and speculation among fans.
While the makers are yet to officially confirm the film's title, rumors are rife that it might be called "NTRNEEL" or "Dragon." Adding fuel to the fire, a recent report by Aakashavaani suggests that the shooting is scheduled to commence on February 20, 2025. According to the report, Jr NTR is expected to join the shoot at a later stage.
Adding to the intrigue, there have been speculations about Malayalam actor Tovino Thomas and Kannada actress Rukmini Vasanth joining the cast, but no official announcement has been made yet.
Tentatively titled "NTRNEEL" or "Dragon," the action epic is slated for a grand theatrical release on January 9, 2026. The pre-production work for the film began earlier in 2024, following a formal muhurat pooja.
Meanwhile, Jr NTR is also set to make a prominent appearance in War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan, further solidifying his presence in the pan-Indian cinematic landscape.1
With the commencement of filming just around the corner, fans are eagerly awaiting official updates about the film's title, cast, and further details about this exciting collaboration between two of the biggest names in Indian cinema.
