When the announcement of Rajamouli’s film RRR, (after Baahubali) starring Ram Charan and Jr NTR came in November 2018, it took the entire Tollywood by storm. Soon, the film went on to become one of the most-awaited projects in India after Ajay Devgn and Alia Bhatt came on board.

While it is for the first time Nandamuri and Konidela clan heroes are teaming up, the bonding between protagonists Charan and Tarak went from strength to strength.

Both of them have complimented each other – be it wishing each other on birthdays or educating people about coronavirus spread or nominating for challenges, their friendship has been most cherished.

While both Charan and NTR have mutual respect for each other, RRR has only brought them closer. Rajamouli played a pivotal role in bringing them closer (more so because they are the protagonists). Their bonding started off on a formal note when the project was announced, but now, almost two years, they can literally take a new leaf out of their friendship book.

A source close to both the actors informs, “Their friendship only made them humble, apart from developing great respect and empathy towards each other. Charan and Tarak’s bonding grew to such an extent that both feel that they have each other during all times, and this aspect of theirs makes their bonding stronger.
