Inside Jr NTR’s Diwali celebrations

Upcoming work

Jr NTR was last seen in Koratala Siva’s Devara: Part 1. The film, which saw Janhvi Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan debuting in Telugu, received mixed reviews but did well at the box office worldwide.

In a promotional interview with the film’s team, the actor responded to the mixed feedback, “We as an audience have become very negative these days. We are not able to enjoy a film in an innocent manner anymore. When I watch my sons, they don’t care about what actor or what movie they are watching; they just enjoy movies. I wonder why we are not able to be that innocent anymore?”

He will soon be seen in an untitled film helmed by Prashanth Neel. He is also debuting in Hindi with War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan.
