Jr. NTR’s recent box office triumph with “Dasara” has further solidified his position as one of the leading stars of Telugu cinema. His upcoming collaboration with acclaimed director Prashanth Neel, tentatively titled “NTR 31,” has generated immense anticipation among fans. With a massive budget of approximately Rs. 350 crores, this project is poised to be one of the most expensive films for both NTR and Neel.
While the industry trend has seen a surge in two-part films, inspired by the success of “Baahubali,” “KGF,” and “Pushpa,” NTR 31 is set to break this mold. Neel has confirmed that the film will be a standalone project, offering a fresh departure from the recent trend of cinematic franchises. This decision comes on the heels of NTR’s experience with “Devara: Part 1,” which was designed as a two-part epic.
The filming of NTR 31 is scheduled to commence in October 2024, with Jr. NTR joining the shoot in January 2025. The film is slated for release on January 9, 2026, and expectations are high for its commercial success. As NTR gears up for this ambitious project, he is also actively promoting his blockbuster “Devara: Part 1,” which has already amassed a gross of nearly ₹400 crores.
NTR 31 promises to be a visually stunning and action-packed film, given Neel’s reputation for delivering thrilling sequences. The combination of NTR’s star power and Neel’s directorial prowess makes this collaboration a highly anticipated event in the Telugu film industry.
