NTR30: Reports claim that Saif Ali Khan on board to play antagonist

HYDERABAD: Jr NTR is reuniting with director Koratala Siva for an interesting film. Earlier, they worked for the film Janatha Garage. Now, they are working for an untitled film. Initially, Vijay Sethupathi was considered for the lead antagonist role. Now, it seems that Vijay Sethupathi may not be a part of #NTR30, as the film's script has reportedly been altered to suit Jr NTR's new pan-India image.
The film, which is being directed by Koratala Siva, has already cast Janhvi Kapoor as the leading lady, and now the makers are reportedly looking for a Bollywood villain to increase the film's penetration power into northern markets.
According to some reports in Bollywood circles, Saif Ali Khan is being considered for the role of the antagonist in the film. This would be Saif's second villain role in a South Indian film, as he is also playing the antagonist in Prabhas' upcoming film Adipurush.
However, there has been no official announcement regarding the casting of the villain in #NTR30. Already, NTR confirmed that the film will be heading for a grand release in April next year.
