Actor Jr NTR has been currently busy with his work commitments. However, showering immense love on the actor, his fans are eagerly awaiting his birthday on May 20. Known for their empathetic and grand celebrations, his fans organised a special blood donation drive in Hyderabad, supporting the ‘Thalassemia And Sickle Cell Society Vuppala Venkaiah Memorial Blood Bank.' With over 300 individuals stepping up to contribute, they displayed their love for the actor in a meaningful way.

Sharing details about the same, Mohammed Jali from the Thalassemia And Sickle Cell Society said, "I came from Thalassemia And Sickle Cell Society Vuppala Venkaiah Memorial Blood Bank. Today Jr NTR fans from Hyderabad organised a blood donation camp. Due to the scorching heat, we anticipated 100 - 150 units, but we have the best count from Jr NTR fans who came and donated blood. We had a very good footfall of 300 units. All the blood will be donated to the Thalassemia And Sickle Cell Society. This camp will help 300 thalassemia patients."

Meanwhile, on the work front, Jr NTR will be seen in Ayan Mukerji's 'War 2' alongside Hrithik Roshan. It also stars Kiara Advani, while the music is given by Pritam. It is the sixth film of the Yash Raj Films (YRF) spy universe.

A report by mid-day.com states that Hrithik and Jr NTR will also have a dance-off in the new thriller. While it was a foregone conclusion that the Aditya Chopra production would include a dance number featuring Duggu, it seems that the makers have come up with a situation to involve Taarak's character in showcasing his nimble-footed skills as well. Especially after his smooth moves in the Oscar-winning song, ‘Naatu Naatu' from SS Rajamouli's ‘RRR' (2022) co-starring Ram Charan.

Besides that Jr NTR also has 'Devara: Part 1' in the pipeline featuring Saif Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor. Directed by Koratala Siva, the film promises gripping action sequences and an extraordinary musical score. The first part will hit theatres on October 10, 2024, coinciding with the Dussehra weekend.

Last month, Karan Johar announced his partnership with the team of 'Devara'. He revealed that Dharma Productions and AA Films have acquired the rights for the North India theatrical distribution of the film.
