The Prime Minister expressed his appreciation for the collective diplomatic efforts, warmly thanking the host nation and greeting his European counterparts.
West Bengal is set to benefit from the first high-speed rail service in eastern India linking Siliguri to Varanasi, which is expected to improve inter-regional mobility. Once completed, it would just take three hours to travel from Varanasi to Siliguri.
The first glimpse of Jr NTR’s upcoming film Dragon is set to be an elaborate affair. According to industry buzz, the glimpse will run for nearly four to five minutes. It will drop in a few hours at 11:52 PM IST and is being described as a true “first glimpse” rather than a conventional teaser. What makes the timing even more interesting is its proximity to the promotional campaign of Ram Charan’s Peddi. Only a day and a half separates the Peddi trailer launch from Dragon’s glimpse release. Before unveiling the trailer, the makers of Peddi had already released two separate glimpses — one showcasing Charan’s cricketer avatar and the other focusing on his wrestler look.
Dragon, however, is taking a different promotional route. The makers have avoided revealing anything in advance. There have been no character snippets or mini teasers so far. The lengthy glimpse itself will serve as the audience’s first major introduction to the film’s world.Even though Dragon is still over a year away from release, comparisons have already begun across social media platforms. The reason is simple — Jr NTR and Ram Charan, who shared screen space in RRR, are presenting the scale and ambition of their respective films in the same week. Naturally, movie buffs are drawing parallels between the two stars and their promotional strategies.
Peddi and Dragon appear to belong to completely different aesthetic and narrative spaces. Peddi is rooted in an underdog narrative, with Ram Charan seemingly playing a man from an oppressed community who rises against social and systemic barriers. The Buchi Babu Sana directorial carries an earthy texture and vibrant visual palette.
Dragon, directed by Prashanth Neel, is expected to move in a darker and grittier direction. Neel’s signature style relies on intense atmospherics, rugged visuals, and powerful elevation moments. Unlike Peddi’s emotionally grounded protagonist, Jr NTR’s character in Dragon is said to be designed like a destructive force. Interesting times ahead!
