Lean avatar: NTR’s team dismisses health rumors

NTR has drastically slimmed down in recent times. He appeared very stylish in his lean avatar during his Japanese trip for “Devara” movie promotions last month. He also attended the “Mad Square” success event in his new slim and trim appearance.

Again, he attended the event for his brother Kalyan Ram’s upcoming film, Arjun S/O Vyjayanthi. He looked leaner.

So, some media outlets and some social media handles began speculating that he must be facing health problems as he is losing more weight than required. But these are mere speculations, close members of his team told us.

As announced earlier, NTR and director Prashanth Neel wanted the star to look drastically different from his recent movies like “RRR,” “Devara,” and upcoming release “War 2.” Hence, NTR underwent weight loss to get a leaner look, which will allow him to groom a different appearance for his role in Prashanth Neel’s movie.

NTR will join the shooting of “Dragon” (tentative title) from April 22nd. As the filming day approaches, NTR is ready for this appearance. This is why the team respectfully requests that you refrain from engaging in unnecessary speculation. The lean look is for his upcoming movie, Dragon, the team told us.
