Director reveals the secret behind NTR’s role in ‘Dragon’

The glimpse of the much awaited film ‘Dragon’, starring Young Tiger N. T. Rama Rao Jr. and directed by Prashanth Neel, was released on the actor’s birthday and has created massive buzz. NTR is seen in an intense avatar, kneeling with an axe surrounded by flames, and will play a powerful character named “Luger”.

Director Prashanth Neel addressed discussions around NTR’s drastic physical transformation, stating that the actor lost around 15 kg for the role out of his own commitment. He clarified that the transformation was entirely driven by the demands of the character. The film, produced by Mythri Movie Makers and NTR Arts, also features Anil Kapoor and Rukmini Vasanth in key roles.
