#NTR31
has
been
making
headlines
ever
since
director
Prashanth
Neel
announced
the
project.
Starring
Tollywood's
handsome
actor
Jr
NTR
in
the
lead
role,
the
project
is
jointly
backed
by
Mythri
Movie
Makers
and
NTR
Arts.
Touted
to
be
an
out-and-out
action
entertainer,
the
film
will
reportedly
feature
Tarak
in
a
never
seen
before
avatar
as
he
will
be
playing
the
role
of
a
young
politician.
Though
the
title,
other
cast
and
crew
members
are
yet
to
be
made
official,
the
latest
report
suggest
that
Tamil
actor
Vijay
Sethupathi
has
been
zeroed
in
for
the
project.
Yes,
you
read
that
right.
Reportedly,
the
actor
has
been
approached
to
play
the
antagonist
in
the
film.
It
is
said
that
Prashanth
has
narrated
the
story
to
Vijay
virtually
and
the
actor
is
yet
to
sign
on
the
dotted
lines.
Considering
the
fact
that
Sethupathi
is
currently
the
busiest
actor
down
south,
we
will
have
to
wait
and
watch
to
see
if
he
actually
accommodates
the
promising
project
#NTR31
in
his
busy
schedule.
Notably,
if
the
rumour
turns
out
to
be
true,
the
film
will
mark
the
actor's
third
outing
in
Tollywood
after
Sye
Raa
Narasimha
Reddy
(2019)
and
Uppena
(2021).
For
the
unversed,
Sethupathi
was
supposed
to
be
a
part
of
Allu
Arjun's
upcoming
film
Pushpa,
however,
he
later
decided
to
opt
out
of
the
project
owing
to
his
extremely
tight
schedule.
Vijay's
upcoming
projects
include
Tughlaq
Durbar,
19(1)
(a),
Kadaisi
Vivasayi,
Maamanithan,
Laabam,
Yaadhum
Oore
Yaavarum
Kelir,
Mugizh,
Corona
Kumar,
Viduthalai,
Annabelle
Subramaniam,
Mumbaikar,
Gandhi
Talks,
Idam
Porul
Yaeval
and
Kaathuvaakula
Rendu
Kadhal.
On
the
other
hand,
Prashanth
Neel
is
busy
with
his
films
including
KGF:
Chapter
2
with
Yash
and
Salaar
with
Prabhas.
As
of
Tarak,
the
star
will
be
next
seen
in
SS
Rajamouli's
RRR
and
Koratala
Siva's
#NTR30.
