Jr NTR-Prashanth Neel's film titled 'Dragon'? Distributor’s comments spark speculation

Jr NTR is collaborating with Prashanth Neel on an upcoming pan-India film, which has been tentatively referred to as 'NTRNeel' or 'NTR31.' However, recent comments from film distributor Sashi have led to speculation that the film has been officially titled 'Dragon.'
During a pre-release event for another film titled 'Dragon,' Sashi was asked about the Telugu title for the Tamil comedy-drama 'Dragon,' which is being released as 'Return of Dragon.' According to an India Today report, he hinted at the existence of another project named 'Dragon,' which fans quickly linked to Jr NTR's collaboration with Prashanth Neel.
Directed by Prashanth Neel, known for 'Salaar' and the 'KGF' series, the film is set to begin production on February 20, 2025. The initial schedule will feature high-intensity action sequences with junior artists, while Jr NTR will join the sets later. 'Dragon' is expected to be a grand action drama, reportedly revolving around themes of immigration and heroism.

Speculation is also rife about other notable actors joining the cast, including Tovino Thomas and Rukmini Vasanth in significant roles.
Meanwhile, Jr NTR is gearing up for his Bollywood debut in a highly anticipated film that is part of the YRF spy universe. The film is slated for release on August 14, 2025, though rumors suggest it may face delays. Jr NTR is expected to play a negative role, going head-to-head with Hrithik Roshan.

Once 'Dragon' is completed, Prashanth Neel is likely to shift his focus back to the 'KGF' franchise with 'KGF 3.' Following the massive success of 'KGF: Chapter 2,' fans are eagerly awaiting the next installment featuring Yash as Rocky.
