Jr. NTR and Prashanth Neel’s “Dragon” Set to Unveil Dark World of Khun Sa
The highly anticipated collaboration between Jr. NTR and director Prashanth Neel has arrived with the announcement of their new film, Dragon. This movie is set to delve into the treacherous realm of the Golden Triangle, exploring the rise of the notorious drug lord Khun Sa, known as the “Opium King.”
Dragon promises to immerse audiences in the historical and perilous world of the Golden Triangle—a region where Thailand, Burma, and Laos converge. The film is set in 1969 and will dramatize the turbulent events surrounding Khun Sa’s arrest, a significant moment in his empire’s history. The narrative will cover his capture after a critical meeting with the Shan State Army, occurring near the borders of China, Bhutan, and India.
Prashanth Neel, renowned for his impactful storytelling, continues his venture into period filmmaking with this project. Dragon is expected to be a landmark film for Jr. NTR, showcasing his range and solidifying his position in the industry.
There is growing speculation on social media about a potential crossover with the KGF universe, given the shared time period of the late 70s. If this crossover materializes, it could bring together NTR and Yash’s Rocky Bhai, creating a cinematic event with the potential to set new benchmarks and captivate audiences across the globe.
