The Story in Brief
Telugu superstar Jr NTR was discharged from KIMS Hospitals in Secunderabad on Thursday, a day after undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery. The hospital said he is doing well and will follow a structured rehabilitation programme. Doctors expect full recovery in 2-3 months.
The actor injured his shoulder in late July while filming an action sequence for Prashanth Neel's 'Dragon'. Sources told India Today that Neel has started pre-production on Prabhas' 'Salaar 2' during the break. 'Dragon', Jr NTR's Kannada debut, is slated for release in June 2027.
The Indian Opinion
Fans are relieved Jr NTR's surgery went well, but the quick pivot to 'Salaar 2' pre-production shows how tightly the industry schedules its top stars. The real test is whether the actor rushes back, or takes the full recovery time. His next release, 'Devara Part 2', is also pending. One question: will the delay push 'Dragon' beyond its June 2027 date?
