Dragon Buzz: Director Prashanth Neel Aims For History Beyond KGF and Salaar With Jr. NTR's Film
Hyderabad, August 30 - Director Prashanth Neel is looking to rewrite history with his upcoming film, tentatively titled Dragon with Telugu superstar Jr. NTR. The maverick filmmaker has delivered three back-to-back blockbusters in the KGF films and Salaar, but he aims to take his game to the next level with Dragon. There is no doubt NTR-Neel is among the biggest Indian films in the making, and if the reports are anything to go by, it could become Neel's biggest blockbuster yet. According to a recent report in Hindustan Times, "Prashanth Neel’s next with Jr NTR is his most ambitious and biggest project yet; even bigger than his pan-India blockbusters like KGF and Salaar." Dragon, which is said to be a unique script that hasn't been seen in Indian cinema before, is believed to be a film Neel has dreamt of making from the very beginning, and he found his favourite actor, Jr NTR, to headline this mega movie. The film is being produced by Mythri Movie Makers and NTR Arts, and it is said that there are no budget constraints to mount to film on a scale the filmmaker wants. He is reportedly happy with the way the film is shaping up, as it is progressing beyond what he had even imagined. Dragon has been announced for a June 2026 release worldwide in multiple languages. The first look announcement had been planned for Jr NTR's birthday in May, but it was postponed to make way for NTR's Bollywood debut, War 2, which was released on August 14. Stay tuned...
