Jr NTR-Prashanth Neel film ‘Dragon’ to be renamed: Report |

Jr NTR‘s mega upcoming film, tentatively called ‘NTRNEEL’, and has been heavily rumoured to be named, ‘Dragon’. Directed by Prashanth Neel, latest news reports suggest that the makers are now actively searching for a new title for the film.Why the title ‘Dragon’ is being droppedAccording to a report by Pinkvilla, the problem arises because ‘Dragon’ is already the title of a Tamil film released in 2025, which was also dubbed into Telugu. Since both versions are available to Telugu-speaking audiences, keeping the same title could cause confusion among fans and viewers. More importantly, the title ‘Dragon’ is already registered, and film industry rules prevent reusing the same title within a short period. To avoid any legal complications and maintain clear branding, the production team has decided to look for a fresh and unique name for the project.Given Jr NTR’s massive fanbase in the Telugu film industry, the makers are being extra cautious. They want a title that not only stands out but also reflects the scale and grandeur of the film. With Prashanth Neel, known for his blockbuster ‘KGF’ series and ‘Salaar’, at the helm, expectations are sky-high. The new title is expected to match the film’s ambitious vision and the star power of Jr NTR.Title reveal expected soonIt is also speculated that the reveal of the new title could happen in the coming weeks.Meanwhile, Jr NTR is also busy with another major project, ‘War 2’, co-starring Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, ‘War 2’ is slated for release on August 14, 2025, and features Kiara Advani as the female lead. This pan-India spy action thriller is expected to be a major box office success.
