'RRR' Star Jr. NTR Wishes To Do Multistarrer Films With Tollywood Superstars

Hyderabad, March 15 - Telugu superstar Jr. NTR is eyeing some of the great films in his career going forward.## Jr. NTR, who is gearing up for the release of SS Rajamouli-directed "RRR" on March 25, said that he wants to do more multistarrer films in his career with top Telugu names. "RRR" is one of the first multistarrer films for Jr. NTR, in which, he will be sharing screen space with Ram Charan, Ajay Devgn, and Alia Bhatt. ## "I want to do multi-starrer films with Bala Babai (Nandamuri Balakrishna), Chiranjeevi Garu, Mahesh Babu, Prabhas, and Allu Arjun", says NTR during Telugu Press Meet while promoting RRR. ## While NTR's wish will surely delight his fans, it could be too costly for the makers. All the actors mentioned above including Jr. NTR himself are some of the highest-paid actors in the country and producers will need a handsome budget to get them on board.## Meanwhile, the anticipation around "RRR" is getting bigger day by day. Rajamouli, whose last directorial was "Baahubali 2" (2017), has raised the eagerness of the audience by claiming that his upcoming movie will be bigger than "Baahubali" films. ## "RRR" was supposed to release on January 7 this year, but was forced to get postponed due to the 3rd covid-19 wave. The makers were tempted to release the film either on Holi or Eid this year, and finally decided on March 25, a week after the Holi festival. It is produced by DVV Entertainment and will have the widest release ever for an Indian movie in multiple languages. ## Stay tuned...
