According to reports, veteran actor Anil Kapoor is likely to join the film as the main villain. This news has increased curiosity among fans, as Anil Kapoor is known for his strong screen presence. If confirmed, his role is expected to be very intense and important to the story.
Initially, the film was planned for a June release. However, sources say that the release might now be pushed to late 2026. The reason behind this delay is the grand scale of the film.

Director Prashanth Neel’s last film was Salaar starring Prabhas. The film was a big action entertainer and received strong response from fans. Its sequel, Salaar: Part 2 – Shouryanga Parvam, is also in the pipeline. However, reports say that work on the sequel will begin only after the completion of Dragon.
