Pointing out that it had come to their attention that certain fan groups had been organising charity drives and raising funds in the name of NTR, the team of actor Jr NTR has now clarified that the star was in no way associated with such activities and that he did not endorse them in any capacity.
In a statement, the actor's team said, "It has come to our attention that certain fan groups have been organising charity drives and raising funds in the name of Mr. NTR. We would like to formally clarify that Mr. NTR is in no way associated with these activities, nor does he endorse them in any capacity."
They further went on to say, "The public, well-wishers and fans are requested to exercise caution and refrain from contributing to any such initiatives represented as being connected to him or his office. Any official communication, association or social activities will only be made by Mr. NTR directly. We appreciate your understanding and continued support."
On the work front, Jr NTR has a number of interesting projects lined up, including his most eagerly awaited film with director Prashanth Neel, tentatively being referred to as NTRNeel.
Only a few days ago, the makers of the magnum opus, featuring actor Jr NTR in the lead, had announced that the film's release was being pushed to June 11, 2027.
For the unaware, the film was to originally hit screens on June 25 this year.
The actor will turn a year older on May 20 and fans are eagerly looking forward to the big day. According to sources close to the development, "After several years, NTR is reportedly set to celebrate his birthday in Hyderabad with family and close ones, taking time off from the shoot of NTRNeel for the occasion."
Hyderabad has always held a special place in NTR's journey, and this year's celebration adds an emotional layer for both the actor and his admirers. The update has already generated considerable excitement among fans, who eagerly wait every year to celebrate their superstar's birthday in a grand way. With NTR turning a year older on May 20, special celebrations are expected across the city.
