While Neel’s films often take years to complete, the makers are aiming to wrap this one within 10 months, targeting a Sankranthi 2026 release. This would be a miracle if Neel achieves it.
However, given the director’s intricate approach and the scale of the film, industry insiders are not sure about meeting this deadline.

NTR is expected to dive into this project immediately after completing War 2, showing his commitment to avoiding delays. Neel, on his part, has meticulously planned the schedule, focusing on complex action sequences.
Rukmini Vasanth is reportedly playing the female lead. While her screen time might be limited like all heroines in Prashanth Neel’s films, her presence is expected to add emotional depth to the story.
The makers are keen on sticking to the planned schedule to meet the Sankranthi release target.
With grand expectations and a powerful combination of talent, this project is poised to become a major highlight in NTR’s career.
Whether it meets the Sankranthi deadline remains to be seen, but fans are eagerly awaiting updates on this high-stakes venture.
