The much-anticipated collaboration between actor Jr NTR and filmmaker Trivikram Srinivas for God of War appears to be firmly on track, with producer Naga Vamsi’s latest social media post putting an end to speculation surrounding the project.
The producer shared a photograph featuring Jr NTR, Trivikram, Chinni Babu and Kalyan Ram, accompanied by the caption “@NTRxTrivikram”. The post has since sparked excitement among fans, who have been awaiting further updates on the ambitious project.
Jr NTR had earlier confirmed his association with Trivikram through the film’s announcement poster. However, speculation about the filmmaker’s professional commitments began circulating following the underwhelming reception to his latest film, Adarsha Kutumbam.
Reports suggested that Trivikram could be parting ways with Haarika & Hassine Creations and moving his next project to DVV Entertainments. These reports had also raised questions about whether God of War would proceed as initially planned.
Naga Vamsi’s post now appears to reaffirm the association, putting the rumours of a change in production banner to rest.
According to reports, Jr NTR is expected to join the film’s sets in the second half of 2027, after completing his current commitments on Dragon, directed by Prashanth Neel. Trivikram has also reportedly completed the script for God of War, having spoken about the project's progress in a recent interview.
Another development generating interest is the reported possibility of Alia Bhatt joining the cast as the female lead. While there has been no official confirmation from the makers, reports suggest that the actress is being considered for a prominent role. Given the film's mythological setting, speculation has also emerged that she could portray Valli, the consort of Lord Murugan.
With Jr NTR reportedly set to portray Lord Murugan, God of War is shaping up to be an ambitious mythological project. Further details about its cast, production timeline and storyline are awaited.
