Project timeline
Film's journey: From announcement to production
Currently titled #NTRNeel, the film was first announced on Jr NTR's birthday in 2022. In May last year, Neel unveiled a poster from the film and revealed that shooting would begin in August. However, only a pooja ceremony was held then. Initially slated to go on floors in March last year, the project witnessed multiple delays before finally going on floors this month. Now, the film is still slated for release in 2026.
