A significant milestone in the careers of both NTR Jr and Prashanth Neel, âNTR Neel's' first official look poster was dropped on the actor's 39th birthday last year. Sporting a menacing expression, Man of Masses NTR Jr truly heightened expectations for the film. Meanwhile, acknowledging the massive fan anticipation, director Prashanth Neel has now come forward and spoken about his masterpiece, revealing the revised shoot start details and hinting at the film's genre.
Speaking to a leading entertainment portal, the filmmaker dismissed rumours of the film being projected as an action entertainer. Calling âNTR Neel' something different than expected, Prashanth Neel said, "It's going to be a different film with different emotions. I don't want to get into the genre but I know, people will assume it to be an action film. I want to call it a very new story for me, which I want to tell my audience. It has got its own emotion and I hope people relate to it."
He concluded adding, "We start shooting in the second half of 2024."
While speaking about the film during the announcement director Prashanth Neel had revealed, " This is an idea that originated in my head 20 years ago, but the magnitude and scale of the movie held me back. Finally the stage is set today to make my dream project with my dream hero".
