RRR's show stealer: Junior NTR vs Ram Charan

A still from RRR

RRR has become one of the biggest blockbusters of Indian cinema. Not long after Jr NTR was questioned about Ram Charan walking away with all the accolades, director SS Rajamouli was also asked if he feels the same way. The master filmmaker stated that the duo justified their respective roles equally.

"It breaks my heart to think of crediting one of them for the movie's success," Rajamouli said and added, "People believe this is because Jr NTR is already well-known for his acting abilities, and Ram Charan's appearance in RRR came as a surprise element. But, as a filmmaker, I know how much effort both of them have put into the subject. In fact, I cannot imagine any other Indian actor in Bheem's role, because it has a multi-layered idiosyncrasy, which NTR alone is capable of carrying," the director stated.

Earlier during the RRR Hindi success meet, NTR was asked to comment on Ram Charan stealing the show but Charan quickly stepped in and heaped praise on NTR.
