The centenary celebrations of NTR in Hyderabad gained attention due to the noticeable absence of Jr NTR. Speculations arose regarding his nonattendance, but the actual reason has now been revealed.
It seems that Balakrishna, inadvertently or deliberately, failed to personally extend an invitation to Jr NTR, while reaching out to several other heroes. This oversight made Jr NTR feel unimportant and disregarded, as he did not perceive it as a genuine invitation.
However, inside sources indicate that this was a pre-planned move by the Nandamuri-Nara families. They purposely orchestrated the situation to create a perception that Jr NTR had been officially invited but chose not to attend.
Knowing that Jr NTR would feel insulted by not receiving a call from Balakrishna, they anticipated that he would decide to stay away from the event. Their plan worked accordingly.
By omitting these crucial details, they could now easily assert, “We invited him, but he didn’t turn up for his own grandfather’s event.”
If Jr NTR is wise and politically astute, he should consider organizing an independent event in memory of his grandfather and demonstrate his strength and influence within the film industry.
