NTR is leaving no stone unturned for his upcoming film with Prashanth Neel, tentatively titled “Dragon.” The actor is undergoing a striking physical transformation, sporting a lean yet muscular look with a sharply chiseled physique for the action drama.

Ignoring ongoing speculation and rumors, the team is progressing steadily with its shooting schedules. As part of his preparation, NTR recently shared a glimpse of his intense fitness routine on social media. The photo, captured from behind, shows him working out on a weights machine, highlighting his sculpted back and triceps.

He captioned the image, “Built, not bought,” underlining the months of discipline and hard work that went into achieving this look.

Production house Mythri Movie Makers amplified the buzz by sharing the same image, adding, “The quieter it gets…the louder it’s about to be.”

The film, widely referred to as #NTRNeel, is expected to present NTR in a never-before-seen avatar. Rukmini Vasanth is likely to play the female lead. With Neel coming off massive successes like “KGF 2” and “Salaar,” expectations for this high-octane action saga are soaring.
