On several occasions in the past, efforts were made to convince NTR to play his legendary grandfather NT Rama Rao on screen. But NTR was reluctant to accept the offers as he believes that he cannot recreate the aura of his grandfather.
Now, the latest buzz doing the rounds in Kollywood circles is that, the makers of Jayalalithaa biopic ‘Thalaivi’ are trying their best to get NTR’s approval to play NTR Sr in the movie. Apparently, there are going to be a few scenes in which Jayaa interacts with the former AP CM and legendary actor, and Tarak’s role is going to be a cameo.
The film stars Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut who’s reprising Jayalalithaa in the titular role. So it will be interesting to see if the Young Tiger accepts this cameo role or not. Needless to say, fans will be thrilled seeing NTR Jr as his grandpa on the big screen, of course, only if he agrees to sign the role.
Thalaivi is being produced by Vishnu Induri, who was also one of the producers of the NTR biopics, NTR Kathanayakudu and NTR Mahanayakudu. AL Vijay is directing this prestigious biopic, which will release simultaneously in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi.
