HT asked Shouryuv if he had contacted Jr NTR with a script, and he replied, “That’s not true. I don’t even know how those rumors started. Unfortunately, this is false information. However, he added brazenly, “I wish it were true, too, someday. “
Pinkvilla had recently cited a source claiming that Shouryuv had proposed a two-part action drama to Jr NTR that was given the green light.
