Jr NTR's journey

Jr NTR is the grandson of Telugu matinee idol N. T. Rama Rao, who was also the former Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. Despite being a star kid, he went through depression after giving back to back flop movies. He once spoke to Siddharth Kannan about his depression phase and said that he was an inexperienced child that time. The fear of losing his stardom weighed heavily on him.

He shared that at the age of 17 and at 18 he featured in SS Rajamouli's super-successful film Student No 1 but there is definitely going to be a steep fall when one has risen so fast. He shared many of his films did not work out and he was depressed. However, the reason behind the depression was not his flop films but he was confused as an actor.

He was then 26-27 and he had no idea what to do and was confused but it was SS Rajamouli who helped him out. SS Rajamouli made him introspect and asked him what he wanted to do more. Jr NTR said that from there things changed and he is satisfied as an actor today. He got to explore himself and he left his comfort zone now. He is one of the most talked about stars in entertainment news.
