According to our exclusive M9 inside info, director Prashanth Neel and Mythri Movie Makers are now backing a new project titled 418. While Prashanth Neel will not be directing this one, he is presenting the film. The movie marks the directorial debut of Kirtan Nada Gouda, who previously worked closely with Neel on both KGF and Salaar.
Described as a horror thriller, 418 is expected to have a dark and intense tone, staying close to the cinematic style associated with Prashanth Neel’s brand. At this stage, the cast and complete technical team are yet to be revealed, but the association with Prashanth Neel and Mythri Movie Makers has already created curiosity.
Interestingly, Telugu audiences may recall the film 118 from 2019 starring Nandamuri Kalyan Ram and Nivetha Thomas, which was a supernatural thriller and a box office success. Now, many are wondering if 418 will follow a similar path or offer something entirely new.
Meanwhile, Mythri Movie Makers and Prashanth Neel are already collaborating on another massive project, the tentatively titled Dragon starring Jr. NTR. With huge expectations, massive scale, and high commercial appeal, Dragon is considered one of the most anticipated upcoming action films in Indian cinema.
Amid that massive project, the development of 418 has come as a surprising move, hinting that Neel and Mythri are planning a versatile slate of films across genres. More details about 418 are expected soon.
