Jr NTR is one of the actors coming from a superstar rich family, where he is the third generation after his grandfather NTR (Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao), his father Harikrishna, uncle Balakrishna and alongside his brother Kalyanram, and cousin Mokshagna Teja sharing the acting career. Recently the ‘RRR’ shared light on whether his children will continue the family legacy.
In an interview with the Associated Press, Jr NTR expressed his desire to give his children the freedom to choose their own paths. He emphasized that he was never pressured into acting; rather, it was a personal choice he made.

Jr NTR mentioned that his father allowed him to explore various interests beyond acting. He was a national-level badminton player and a trained classical dancer, experiences that enriched his life. He stated that he wants to be an example for his sons, Abhay and Bhargav, rather than a blueprint they must follow.
He believes that too much emphasis on family history can be burdensome for children and wants them to have the opportunity to explore their passions.
He said, “Too much of history is not good for kids. I want to be an example to them to have a journey of their own. I want to give them an opportunity to explore, rather than rubbing it on them. They need to decide for themselves.”
Despite this, Jr NTR admitted that his sons currently show an interest in acting, likely influenced by their environment.
On the work front, Jr NTR’s latest film, ‘Devara: Part 1’ has been doing wonders at the box office, domestically as well as globally. The movie features Janhvi Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan in the lead and was released on September 27th. The pan-India film is released in multiple languages.
