Hyderabad: A hint dropped by Alia Bhatt at the trailer screening of Gangubai Kathiawadi in Mumbai Thursday evening has intensified speculation that she will join hands with her RRR lead star Jr NTR for an upcoming Telugu movie.
Tentatively titled NTR30, Jr NTR’s upcoming movie is reported to be helmed by Koratala Siva of Mirchi fame. The yet-to-be-launched movie is rumoured to have Alia Bhatt as the female lead opposite Jr NTR.
In the interesting turn of events at the trailer launch of the Alia Bhatt-starrer Gangubai Kathiawadi, the actress was quizzed about her upcoming movies.
In her reply, she said: “There is RRR obviously. Then there is another project, which I shouldn’t be commenting about just yet.” Tollywood insiders said it was a confirmation of the news doing the rounds that Alia and Jr NTR will collaborate for the second time after S.S. Rajamouli’s magnum opus.
Jr NTR, meanwhile, is all set for the launch of two of his big-ticket movies, one of which is to be directed by Koratala Siva and the other by Julayi director Trivikram Srinivas.
NTR is also in talks for another interesting script, which is to be directed by Buchi Babu Sana of Uppena fame.
