After scoring a major comeback with Thandel, Akkineni Naga Chaitanya is back in action and has now dived deep into the shoot of his next big venture—a mythological thriller tentatively titled #NC24. Directed by Virupaksha fame Karthik Dandu, this ambitious project is being mounted on a lavish scale under the prestigious banners Sri Venkateswara Cine Chitra LLP (SVCC) and Sukumar Writings, produced by BVSN Prasad and Sukumar, with Bapineedu presenting.
Following the completion of a high-intensity first schedule, the team has now commenced a crucial and extended second schedule in Hyderabad. This month-long shoot will cover three major locations and feature pivotal sequences involving Naga Chaitanya and prominent actors from other film industries.
The production boasts a top-tier technical crew working to deliver a visually grand cinematic experience. Recently, the makers unveiled a striking poster featuring Naga Chaitanya in a rugged avatar, gripping a pickaxe and jute rope, with the mysterious tagline: “One step deeper, one swing closer.” His transformation for the role is said to be a major highlight of the film.
Previously, the makers released a powerful concept video titled “NC24 – The Excavation Begins,” which received overwhelming appreciation for its scale, tone, and production values. More updates are expected soon, building up the buzz for this never-before-seen mythological thriller.
