Suryaa Entertainment Desk: Discussions are circulating in Film Nagar regarding the status of the project God of War, which was to feature the collaboration of NTR and director Trivikram Srinivas. The lack of updates on the film has caused concern among fans, especially following the success of their previous collaboration, Aravinda Sametha Veera Raghava.
Reports indicate that the project was planned with a budget of approximately 500 crore rupees. However, it is understood that the production house is reconsidering the project due to uncertainty in the South Indian film market, specifically regarding digital and OTT business trends. Producers are reportedly hesitant to take risks on such a large investment due to shifting rates for digital and non-theatrical rights. Additionally, analysts suggest that with several films featuring mythological and divine themes currently being released in the Indian film industry, there is a need to focus on the novelty of the script.
Director Trivikram Srinivas has reportedly completed the script work and prepared for pre-production. However, the future of the project depends on NTR’s schedule and his final approval. As NTR is currently busy with other pan-Indian films, there is no clarity on when the shooting for this project will commence. It remains to be seen whether the script will be restructured to align with current market trends and budget calculations, or if the project will be set aside. An official announcement is awaited.
