Producers Sudhakar Mikkilineni and Kosaraju Harikrishna today announced the arrival of Bollywood star hero Saif Ali Khan on the sets of NTR30. Saif, last seen in films like 'Thanhaji' in Hindi, will be locking horns with Jr NTR in this big-ticket, pan-Indian 2024 release.

Saif, to be seen in 'Adipurush' on June 16 this year, is going to play a macho villain in NTR30. Director Koratala Siva is believed to have designed a distinctive role for him. Koratala's villains have been the likes of Mukesh Rishi and Sonu Sood. For the first time, matching the huge range of his movie, he has roped in a mainstream Hindi film hero to play the villain.

Music director Anirudh Ravichander is on board. Cinematographer Rathnavlu is also working. The film, whose production design is by Sabu Cyril, will hit the screens on April 5, 2024.

Jr NTR was recently in the news for hosting a party at his residence. James Farrell, the Vice President International of Amazon Studios was in attendance alongside the likes of SS Rajamouli and Trivikram.
