It was recently announced that the artiste would team up with Uppena (2021) filmmaker Buchi Babu Sana for a rural-based project. 

However, before embarking upon this movie, he will have to complete shooting for his next film with Koratala Siva. The as-yet-untitled film, to be bankrolled by Mythri Movie Makers, will go on the floors in March or April. 

Jr NTR also has a film with KGF (2018) director Prashanth Neel. Tipped to be a pan-Indian project, this movie is expected to go on the floors in the latter half of the year. 

Meanwhile, the actor is looking forward to the release of SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus RRR, in which he’s shared screen space with Ram Charan for the first time. 

In the film, Jr NTR shares screen space with Ram Charan for the first time. The film is a fictional story set in the 1920s and it revolves around two renowned revolutionaries – Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem.

The film, which will be dubbed and released in Hindi, also stars Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt, Samuthirakani and Shriya Saran.
