Director Koratala Siva is all set to collaborate with Jr. NTR for the second time after ‘Janatha Garage’ (2016), with ‘NTR 30’. During the muhurat pooja in Hyderabad, he promised his fans that ‘NTR 30’ will be his biggest and best film. The film will also stars Janhvi Kapoor in the lead and the director mentioned how he is looking forward to working with her.
While further revealing details about the film, the director shared, “I feel fortunate to work with my brother and one of the best actors of our generation for the second time. The film’s backdrop is centered around the far and forgotten coastal lands of India. The people, or rather the villains, in the film, neither fear death nor God and there is no sense of humanity among them. The film is a very emotional story that emphasizes the role fear plays in having a moral and humane society. I promise everyone that ‘NTR 30’ is going to be my biggest and best film.”
He further added how working on a film of this big scale is only possible if you have the backing of great team players and shared, “To pull off a big film and a big idea, you need a great army. I am fortunate to have all these great men here. My brother Anirudh, the man of sound, gave life to the film. After narrating the film to him, he said that I wrote the film with a fiery passion. I felt great joy after hearing that. The legendary Sreekar Prasad Garu traveled with me and stood by me right from day one. Thank you Randy sir for traveling with me for one year on this project before the film even started. No one can do justice to my film apart from Sabu sir. Thank you, my friend, Yugandhar. A lot of VFX has been used in the film; hopefully, we will have a great journey.”
The muhurat puja saw industry makers like S S Rajamouli, Bhushan Kumar, Prakash Raj, Mani Ratnam, Prashanth Neel, Naveen Yerneni, Shyam Prasad Reddy and Sudhakar in attendance at the event.
The film is produced by Hari Krishna K of NTR Arts and Sudhakar Mikkilineni of Yuvasudha Arts and will be releasing on April 5, 2024.
