'Shall I leave?: Jr NTR snaps at fan during War 2 event, shuts down disruption in Hyderabad
Jr NTR asked fan to maintain silence
In a video which has surfaced on X (formerly Twitter), Jr NTR is seen saying, "Brother, shall I leave? What did I tell you? Maintain silence when I speak. It won't take me a second to keep the mic down and leave the stage.' Thousands of fans had gathered to celebrate the RRR star's new venture, but the disruption briefly stole the spotlight.
During the event, Jr NTR thanked Yash Raj Films for the opportunity and addressed fan-made comparisons with Hrithik Roshan following the release of the dance number Janaab-e-Aali.
'Comparisons can mislead fans. It wasn't a face-off. We complemented each other. Hrithik is one of the greatest dancers in the country. Every day on set, Hrithik brought unmatched energy. Those 75 days were fascinating—I learnt so much from him. I'll never forget the first hug he gave me. That warmth made my Bollywood debut journey much easier.'
