NTR turn downs Kangana Ranaut's film

NTR is said to have turned down a request to do a guest role in Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut’s current film which is a biopic of Jayalalithaa. Titled ‘Thalaivi’, the film is being produced by Vishnu Induri, who is well-known in the Telugu film industry. He also co-produced NTR Biopic with Balakrishna. Given his connections with NTR Jr, the producer approached him to reprise the role of his grandfather late NT Rama Rao but the Young Tiger is said to have outrightly rejected the offer.

NTR Jr also didn’t act in his grandfather’s biopic ‘NTR Kathanayakudu’.

Former Tamilnadu Chief Minister Late Jayalalithaa began her career in Telugu and Tamil films and she acted opposite NTR and ANR. The makers wanted to cash in on NTR Jr’s name but he turned down their greedy offer.
