Over the years, Karan Johar has been the first to collaborate with filmmakers from across the country and aided his support much before anyone else. Ever since the release of RRR, Karan has been speaking to NTR Jr. about various subjects, which included the idea of casting him as Dev in Brahmastra 2. The duo is finally uniting on Devara, as Karan will be presenting the Kortala Siva directorial in Hindi. But that’s not all, Pinkvilla has exclusively learnt that Karan Johar has parted ways with a title for NTR JR.

NTR 31 is tentatively titled Dragon

According to sources close to the development, Prashanth Neel and NTR Jr’s maiden collaboration is tentatively titled Dragon. “While they got the title Dragon in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, the same was registered with Karan Johar in Hindi. It took a simple two-minute conversation with Karan for him to part ways with the title for Neel and NTR,” revealed a source close to the development.

The source further informed that it’s a goodwill gesture from Karan Johar’s end and there will be absolutely no monetary exchange, though the title Dragon is a powerful one worth crores. For those unaware, the original title of Brahmastra was Dragon back in 2014. As the draft of the film evolved, so did the title, as the makers decided to go more rooted.

The Prashanth Neel film is touted to be the 31st Film of NTR Jr and the shooting timelines are being figured out at this point, as the director is also committed to shooting for Salaar 2 with Prabhas in the lead.
