At the success event for Mad Square, Jr NTR, the star of Devara, subtly confirmed his upcoming collaboration with Nelson Dilipkumar. The film will be produced by Naga Vamsi and feature music by Anirudh Ravichander.
Jr NTR shared, “If I talk about Vamsi too much, he might get dishti (evil eye). He’s become accustomed to good things happening for him. We’re about to start something soon, and he’ll announce it when the time is right. Once we make the announcement, I’ll let Vamsi handle the details.”
To recap, reports of a potential Jr NTR-Nelson collaboration first surfaced in November 2024. According to Reports, Nelson had pitched several ideas to Jr NTR, and one had been finalized. The report further mentioned that two major production houses were in the running to produce the film. However, an official confirmation from Jr NTR and Nelson Dilipkumar regarding the project is still awaited.
