NTR-Neel's Project Dragon Bags Record OTT Deal
People in the industry say the idea is simple: give the film more breathing space, especially in the North, where NTR’s fan base has exploded post RRR.;
Every storm starts with a spark, and Dragon seems to be that spark for Jr NTR and Prashanth Neel. When this combo was first announced, fans expected something wild, but now the talk isn’t just about the movie itself, it’s about the massive OTT deal it just pulled off.
While most South films are rushing to OTT within a month, Dragon is going old-school. The team has reportedly locked an eight-week gap before it lands online, keeping the buzz alive in theatres a bit longer. And here’s the kicker, Netflix has apparently grabbed the rights for a huge price. Word is, it’s one of the biggest OTT deals ever for a Telugu film, and that’s already setting trade circles on fire.
People in the industry say the idea is simple: give the film more breathing space, especially in the North, where NTR’s fan base has exploded post RRR. Plus, a Prashanth Neel movie is meant to be seen on the big screen, the sound, the scale, the chaos. Watching that on a phone just doesn’t hit the same.
For now, Dragon feels like that silent storm waiting to drop. No title reveal yet, no teaser, and still the buzz is loud. Between NTR’s screen power and Neel’s rugged storytelling, this one looks ready to blow the roof off whenever it finally lands.
