JR NTR Gets Labelled As Arrogant After Lashing Out At Fan During War 2 Pre-Release Event. More Details Inside!
At a recent War 2 event, JR NTR was seen scolding a fan for interrupting the event!
What was meant to be a high-octane promotional event for War 2 veered off course when a moment between Jr. NTR and a fan dominated the headlines. A clip of the event, which has gone viral on social media, captures the actor cutting into his own speech to single out someone in the audience who kept shouting slogans for Nandamuri Balakrishna, commonly referred to as Balayya.
JR NTR Scolds Fan During War 2 Event
During the video, JR NTR can be clearly seen hesitating before requesting that the person stop interrupting the proceedings. He instructed them sternly to keep quiet while he spoke, threatening to walk off stage if the disruptions did not stop. His message, though short, was sufficient to trigger a virtual controversy with critics labelling his tone as “arrogant” and supporters citing that it was a decent response to incessant heckling.
One X (ex-Twitter) user accused the star of suggesting that ignoring fans like those was disrespectful and told him to “change his arrogance” while reminding him of the significance of his followers. Others, however, noted that fan competitions among Telugu movie actors have been a thorn in the side of the industry for years and can throw events designed to promote upcoming projects into chaos.
The accident has, for the time being at least, eclipsed news about War 2, a large project of Yash Raj Films’ expanding Spy Universe. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the film features Hrithik Roshan reprising his role as RAW agent Major Kabir Dhaliwal. Jr. NTR debuts in his much-hyped Bollywood stint in the film, playing a formidable villain according to reports, while Kiara Advani plays a crucial role.

Promising to be a globe-trotting spy thriller, War 2 will have six huge action sequences and touch upon themes of betrayal and loyalty as Kabir confronts a rogue past ally. The movie will also be connected to the larger narrative of other Spy Universe films like Pathaan and Tiger 3.
While the film’s adrenaline-fueled premise is getting fans worked up, the War 2 event drama has served to remind everyone that in the realm of Indian cinema, off-screen drama can sometimes create just as much news as the movies themselves.
