Jr NTR's Selfish Demand From Rudrama
on Oct 6, 2015
Hero Jr NTR is the original choice of director-producer Gunasekhar, as he revealed the same at a media meet today. Though he narrated the story to NTR in advance, much before kick starting the shooting of the film, this Nandamuri hero haven't agreed for it. Guess why?
When Gunasekhar narrated the story of Queen Rudrama Devi and her accomplishments as a Kakatiya empress, Jr NTR developed an immense like for Gona Ganna Reddy character. Junior has asked Guna to develop the story around Gona Ganna Reddy character and make it a hero-centric film rather a heroine-centric film. That's one big selfish demand, say cine observers. "Will any hero ask for a history distortion and ask a hero-centric film when Queen Rudrama's character is so powerful and historical?", few asked.
Afterwards as Jr NTR showed no interest in playing the came of Gona Ganna Reddy, finally Allu Arjun has turned up one day and revealed his wish to play the character. That's another story.
