Dragon dialogues to be impactful
The dialogues in Dragon are expected to be far more intense and layered than usual. Tarak personally chose Deva Katta to handle certain dramatic portions of the script. Deva Katta is widely respected for his hard-hitting storytelling style. His most celebrated directorial remains Prasthanam, which attained cult status for its philosophical dialogues and political themes. He has also directed notable films such as Vennela and Republic. His ability to craft sharp social commentary and emotionally charged dialogues makes him a strong fit for this mass action entertainer.
A source close to the production house shared, “Deva Katta is celebrated for his cerebral and dialogue-heavy writing style that focuses on intense drama and emotional depth. Jr NTR felt Deva’s crisp and sharp writing would add greater dramatic elevation to the story.” Dragon is currently scheduled to release worldwide on June 11, 2027. Rukmini Vasanth plays a pivotal role in the film, while Ravi Basrur is composing the music. Reports also suggest that certain script-related changes were made after the disappointing performance of War 2.
What may have prompted Jr NTR to bring Deva Katta onboard?
Deva Katta previously contributed dialogues to Baahubali: The Beginning. He is credited with writing the powerful “Yedhi Maranam” sequence, which became one of the most iconic moments in S. S. Rajamouli’s filmography. More recently, Rajamouli reportedly roped him in to work on dialogues for his upcoming globe-trotting adventure Varanasi starring Mahesh Babu. He is said to be involved in script doctoring and refining key sequences as the project progresses.
