God of War: NTR and Trivikram’s Mythological Film on Lord Kartikeya Announced With Poster Reveal

Jr NTR and filmmaker Trivikram Srinivas have officially reunited for a high-profile mythological film based on Lord Subramanya Swamy (Kartikeya/Murugan/Skanda) , with the makers unveiling a concept poster that has intensified nationwide anticipation for the project.

The announcement confirms months of speculation surrounding the collaboration, which is being positioned as one of Telugu cinema’s most ambitious pan-India ventures. According to multiple reports and industry updates, the project has also been widely referred to in development stages as “God of War,” reflecting its focus on the divine warrior deity Kartikeya, son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati .

The concept poster reportedly highlights a powerful trishul motif and battlefield imagery, signalling a narrative rooted in mythological warfare and spiritual symbolism. The visual tone has been interpreted as a blend of devotion and large-scale action filmmaking, a combination that aligns with Trivikram Srinivas’ writing style and Jr NTR’s established mass appeal.

Industry coverage also indicates that Jr NTR will portray Lord Kumara Swamy , a revered form of Kartikeya associated with strength, wisdom and protection. Earlier reports had suggested that the role had been under consideration for some time, with the character being central to the mythological framework of the film.

The project is being produced under Haarika & Hassine Creations and NTR Arts , with producers S. Radha Krishna and Naga Vamsi backing the venture. Reports further suggest that music composer Anirudh Ravichander is associated with the film, adding to expectations of a large-scale audiovisual presentation.

Significantly, several industry narratives highlight that this marks the third collaboration between Jr NTR and Trivikram Srinivas after Aravinda Sametha Veera Raghava , further elevating expectations for both creative scale and box office impact.

With strong interest already building across South India and pan-India markets, the film is being viewed as a major cultural and commercial event in the making, merging mythology with contemporary cinematic spectacle at a national level.
