NTR Jr is all set to perform the most dangerous stunts of his career without any body double. The superstar will begin shooting intense action sequences for Prashanth Neel‘s upcoming film Dragon throughout December at Ramoji Film City. These sequences are said to be far riskier than anything the actor has attempted before.
Next month, NTR Jr will dedicate almost all of December to shooting rigorous action blocks. The sequences promise to be heart-stopping and more intense than any of his previous action films. This marks a major shift in how the superstar approaches his stunts.
No Body Double This Time
The biggest news is that NTR Jr has decided to ditch body doubles completely for this film. A source close to the development revealed that the actor is very clear that the days of body doubles are over. The trend in the industry is changing rapidly.
Even superstars like Salman Khan, who has relied on doubles for most of his stunts in the past, are now doing their own action sequences in his new films. The source mentioned that every superstar is Tom Cruise now, referring to Hollywood action star Tom Cruise, who famously performs his own dangerous stunts. NTR Jr is joining this league of actors who believe in authenticity.
Three Weeks Of Night Shoots Planned
The plan is to shoot these stunt blocks for three weeks of night schedules throughout December. The filming will take place at the iconic Ramoji Film City, which provides the perfect setting for large-scale action sequences. However, the timeline may get extended by another week depending on how the shooting progresses.
Night shoots are particularly challenging as they require intense focus and physical stamina. The fact that these sequences will continue for three straight weeks shows the scale and complexity of the action being planned.
Family Kept In The Dark
Interestingly, NTR Jr has reportedly not informed his wife and children about the hazardous stunt work he will be undertaking next month. This decision likely comes from not wanting to worry his family about the dangerous nature of the sequences. The actor seems fully committed to delivering something special for his fans.
