NTR’s Power Line Up: As the new year kicks in, NTR’s calendar is hotter than ever, with a mix of pan Indian action, mythic scale, and long awaited reunions that promise to dominate the box office for years to come. Let’s take a look at what’s next for the man of the masses:
Devara: Part 2
Following the massive success of Devara: Part 1, the sequel has been officially greenlit with director Koratala Siva at the helm. Shooting is expected to kick off in early 2026, once NTR wraps up his prior commitments, eyeing a late 2026 or early 2027 release. Fans are already excited about the expanded universe, new characters, and the next chapter in the “Lord of the Seas” saga.
NTRNeel / Dragon
NTR’s highly anticipated collaboration with Prashanth Neel (director of the KGF series) is officially titled NTRNeel and is slated for a theatrical release on June 25, 2026. The film, widely rumoured to be called Dragon, is being crafted as a grand-scale period action drama, with a confirmed two‑part structure to fully realize its epic narrative. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers and NTR Arts, it is being positioned as a major pan‑Indian tentpole release.
NTR x Nelson Dilipkumar
NTR is all set to team up with Jailer director Nelson Dilipkumar for a high‑octane, one‑of‑a‑kind action film, produced by Naga Vamsi’s Sithara Entertainment. The project is expected to go on floors in the second half of 2026, targeting a 2027 release, and is already being positioned as one of the most anticipated pan‑Indian action spectacles of the year. With Nelson’s proven mass appeal and NTR’s star power, this collaboration is generating massive buzz and is widely tipped to be a major blockbuster.
NTR x Trivikram Srinivas
Strong rumours are swirling about NTR reuniting with Trivikram Srinivas for a high‑budget, pan‑Indian mythological film, tentatively referred to as God of War. The project is said to feature NTR in a divine, larger‑than‑life role, set in a grand, mythic universe crafted on an epic scale. While nothing has been officially announced yet, the buzz around this potential collaboration is already generating huge anticipation among fans and trade circles alike.
NTR x Hanu Raghavapudi
NTR is currently in discussions with Sita Ramam director Hanu Raghavapudi for a two‑part, pan‑Indian feature described as a big‑scale, emotionally charged story. The film is expected to go on floors only after NTR wraps up his 2026–2027 slate, with a likely release window in 2028 or later. The two‑part format points to a sweeping, epic narrative, offering NTR the opportunity to portray a fresh, layered character within a grand cinematic universe.
With Devara: Part 2 and NTRNeel both aiming for 2026, Jr NTR is poised for back‑to‑back pan‑Indian releases, further cementing his position as a true national superstar. His lineup spanning Koratala Siva, Prashanth Neel, Nelson Dilipkumar, and potential reunions with Trivikram Srinivas and Hanu Raghavapudi is among the most stacked in contemporary Indian cinema. From mythic, larger‑than‑life avatars to intense, gritty action heroes, NTR’s upcoming slate promises a diverse, high‑octane cinematic experience for every kind of fan.
