NTR hopes to change tack

  • IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,December 18 2004]

NTR Jr is one of the most committed and energetic actors in the circuit these days. He gives his best in every shot and scene.

No wonder, directors and producers are seeking him out earnestly.

But then, NTR Jr has a problem, too. He is predictable like a merry-go-round. You know what is coming in the corner. If you have seen one NTR Jr film, you have seen it all.

The robust dances, the bloody fights, the chilly-dipped dialogues …they are all ever so predictable.

It is a fear that looks heightened with the impending release of Alludu. It is a movie that has him playing the righteous son-in-law to a high-handed Ramya Krishnan. In a sense, it takes off from where Alladi Ramudu where Nagma played the mother-in-law, left.

In this film, NTR imitates his late grandfather in a song and he has two heroines to run around with.

Some distributors have expressed their apprehensions about the film. They hope that NTR Jr will change his formula.
