RRR ( Netflix/Zee5, 2022)
Jr NTR played Komaram Bheem, a legendary tribal leader, in SS Rajamouli's RRR. The film centred on his character's friendship with Alluri Sitarama Raju, a revolutionary, played by Ram Charan and their fight against British Rule. The Naatu Naatu song from this blockbuster became a rage and won an Oscar. RRR grossed over Rs 1000 crore at the box office and emerged as the biggest hit of the Nandamuri hero's career.
Aravinda Sametha (Zee5, 2018)
Koratala Siva's action drama centred on the war between two factions and featured Jr NTR in a subdued yet intense role that did justice to his reel image. The action scenes and Tarak's chemistry with Pooja Hegde proved to be the backbone of the film. Its music was composed by Thaman. Aravinda Sametha grossed nearly Rs 190 crore on a budget of Rs 60 crore and set the box office on fire.
Jai Lava Kusa (Sun NXT, 2017)
Jr NTR played three distinct roles in Bobby's action-packed masala entertainer. Tarak did complete justice to all three characters, proving his mettle. Jai Lava Kusa earned around Rs 150 crore globally on a budget of Rs 50 crore and emerged as a massive hit.
Nannaku Prematho (Sun NXT, 2016)
Sukumar's well-received action drama Nannaku Prematho featured Jr NTR in the role of an expatriate in London who vows to destroy a businessman for hoodwinking his dying father. The actor's stylish and suave look was one of the biggest highlights of Nannaku Prematho, which reportedly grossed over Rs 100 crore on a budget of Rs 50 crore.
Temper (Sun NXT, 2015)
Jr NTR excelled in the role of a corrupt cop in Temper, a pakka commercial action drama with a message. The film saw the mass hero flaunt his chiseled physique and hit it out the park in the fight scenes. He was equally convincing in the court sequence.
Temper earned over Rs 70 crore on a budget of Rs 35 crore and exceeded expectations at the box office.
