May 20 is shaping up to be a massive celebration for Jr. NTR fans, not just because it marks the Telugu superstar’s 42nd birthday, but because it’s set to unveil exclusive sneak peeks from two of his most awaited films. From stepping into Bollywood's mega YRF Spy Universe with War 2, to teaming up with KGF director Prashanth Neel for a high-octane pan-India film, Jr. NTR is ready to rule the big screen once again.
War 2 First Look to Set the Internet Ablaze
According to reports, Yash Raj Films is planning a grand reveal of Jr. NTR’s first look in War 2 on his birthday. This is a rare move, as Bollywood studios like YRF generally avoid releasing birthday-centric content. However, Jr. NTR’s pan-India stardom especially after RRR's phenomenal success, has changed the game.
Starring alongside Hrithik Roshan, Jr. NTR will make his Hindi cinema action debut in the War sequel, helmed by Brahmastra director Ayan Mukerji. His role is expected to be that of a sleek, intense spy, a look that fans are eagerly awaiting.
Prashanth Neel Collab: 'Dragon' Tease Also Expected
If that wasn't exciting enough, buzz suggests that Jr. NTR’s upcoming film with director Prashanth Neel (tentatively titled Dragon) will also unveil its title and poster on May 20. With Neel’s massive success through KGF and Salaar, expectations from this collaboration are sky-high. The film promises a gritty, intense cinematic experience, and the birthday drop could kickstart its promotional campaign with a bang.
