The Tollywood star young tiger, Jr NTR, known for his powerful screen presence, recently appeared visibly thinner and tired during a visit to the late actor Kota Srinivasa Rao’s residence. He had gone there to offer condolences to the veteran actor’s family following his passing on Sunday due to health issues.
After paying his respects, Jr NTR spoke to the media and emotionally recalled his memories with Kota. He praised him as a legendary actor who gave life to every role and said the moments they shared on screen would remain unforgettable. The video of his heartfelt words is now going viral online.
However, what caught fans’ attention more was Jr NTR’s appearance. Many were surprised to see him looking slimmer than usual, with some saying he looked dull and tired. This led to concern, with fans asking questions like “Is he unwell?” and “Why has he lost so much weight?”
Some social media users believe his new look might be part of his role in director Prashanth Neel’s upcoming period action drama, which is currently being shot at a fast pace. The film is scheduled for release on 25 June next year, and Jr NTR is actively involved in back-to-back shooting schedules.
A similar situation happened a few weeks ago when Jr NTR appeared at a public event looking noticeably thin, which also raised questions among fans.
For now, there is no official statement from Jr NTR. Whether it is for a film or something else, his new look has definitely become the centre of attention in the Telugu film world. Fans are hoping all is well and waiting to hear more from the star himself.
