Happy Birthday Jr NTR! When a Japanese fan left the War 2 star impressed with their Telugu
Now as super fans gush over the power-packed teaser, it only feels right to throw it back to a rather endearing moment caught on camera between the actor and an incredibly dedicated fan of his, all the way from Japan. In the clip, Jr NTR can be seen being swarmed by fans, as he signs one autograph after the next. One fan, struggling to come forth, blurts out "Anna nenu RRR chusina taravata Telugu nerchukunnanu. (Brother, I learnt Telugu after watching RRR)", a revelation which leaves the actor understandably stunned as he exclaims "wow!". The fan proceeds to share how she started learning Telugu 2 years back, after watching the film, also calling the actor an 'inspiration'. As Jr NTR signs an autograph for her, he tells her "You're a bigger inspiration than all of us".

The caption to his post read, "My visits to Japan always give me beautiful memories but this one hit differently. Hearing a Japanese fan tell me she learned Telugu after watching RRR truly moved me...Being a lover of cinema and languages, the power of cinema to be a bridge across cultures and encouraging a fan to learn a language is something I will never forget. One more reason to celebrate Indian Cinema as it travels the world".
It is worth mentioning that the actor is quite the sensation in Japan. As a matter of fact, he was there earlier this year in March to see through the release of his film Devara: Part 1, also starring Janhvi Kapoor.
As far as his next endeavour, War 2 goes, the film is slated for an August 14 release later this year.
We wish Jr NTR a very happy birthday!

Meghalaya CM Conrad Sangma Charms Audience With ‘Pehla Nasha' On Piano
Last Updated: Meghalaya CM Conrad Sangma wowed Raj Bhavan guests, including the Governor, by playing Pehla Nasha on a 150-year-old piano. Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma drew applause and smiles at Raj Bhavan after delivering a soulful rendition of the Bollywood classic Pehla Nasha on a 150-year-old piano. The audience, which included Governor C H Vijayashankar, was visibly impressed, with the Governor seen praising the CM's piano skills. The video of the song, from the 1992 film Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, has since been shared widely on social media, earning Conrad Sangma praise for his musical talent. But this is far from the first time the music-loving chief minister has made headlines for his performances. In 2023, he impressed rock fans by playing the iconic guitar solo from Iron Maiden's Wasted Years and in 2021, he posted a video of himself singing Bryan Adams' Summer of '69. He has also shared clips of himself playing Joe Satriani's 'Always With Me, Always With You', modestly noting he was 'almost there" with the complex piece. view comments First Published: August 16, 2025, 22:03 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Malaika Arora Hints At Second Marriage; Udaipur Files Producer Blasts Hindu Audience For Film's Failure
Last Updated: Malaika Arora spoke about her marriage plans after divorcing Arbaaz Khan. Udaipur Files producer Amit Jani slammed Hindu audiences after the film's box office failure. Malaika Arora and Arbaaz Khan got married in 1998. Arora was about 25 years old at that time. Four years into their marriage, they welcomed their son Arhaan Khan in 2002. After being married for 18 years, the couple announced their separation in 2016 and finalised their divorce in 2017. While Arbaaz Khan is now remarried to Sshura Khan, is a second marriage on the cards for Malaika as well? In a recent chat with Pinkvilla, Malaika mentioned that she is not closed off to the idea of another marriage. Udaipur Files, starring Vijay Raaz, released in theatres on August 8, 2025, but the film has failed to make an impression at the box office. According to trade portal Sacnilk, the movie has managed to collect only ₹1.54 crore so far, and is being labelled a flop. For more updates: Udaipur Files Producer SLAMS Hindu Audience For Watching Saiyaara, War 2 And Coolie: 'Jihaad Jeet Gaya' Rajesh Khanna was among the first superstars in Bollywood. While much is known about his marriage and separation from Dimple Kapadia in the late 90s, not much is known about his relationship with actress Anita Advani. Anita Advani claims that she married Rajesh Khanna in a secret ceremony and lived with him till his death in 2012. However, since Rajesh and Dimple were only separated and not divorced, the second marriage couldn't have been legal. On India's 79th Independence Day, veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar took to X (formerly Twitter) to extend his wishes. He shared a message, reminding his followers that freedom was earned through immense sacrifices by numerous freedom fighters, not simply given. A troll reacted to Javed Akhtar's message with a disgraceful comment suggesting he should celebrate Independence Day on August 14 instead. For those unaware, India celebrates its Independence Day on August 15, while Pakistan's is on August 14. Javed Akhtar shut down the troll with a powerful reminder that his ancestors laid down their lives fighting for India's freedom. A proud father, Amitabh Bachchan has showcased his pride in his son Abhishek Bachchan, who was feted with the Best Actor for 'I Want To Talk" at THE Indian Film Festival of Melbourne 2025, and said that he is the honour of their family.
