Jr. NTR's fans have not been able to control their excitement ever since it was announced that the actor will team up with SS Rajamouli's 'RRR'. The big-ticket movie stars Ram Charan and Junior NTR in lead roles. Ardent followers of Jr. NTR were eagerly waiting to see his first look from 'RRR' on his birthday. However, they will have to wait for some time.
The makers have issued a statement expressing their inability to release the first look of Jr. NTR on his birthday. They released a statement and said that they couldn't complete the work due to the lockdown extension.
"As the lockdown gets extended time and again, work has come to a dead stop. And though we tried our best, we couldn’t finish work on a glimpse of @tarak9999 to give you all a treat on his birthday! And so, we will not be releasing either a first look or a video on the occasion. We don't want to release something just for the sake of it and we promise that the wait will absolutely be worth it! Whenever it comes to you, be sure it will be the biggest festival for all of us!," the statement read.
The 'Rabhasa' actor shared a note for his fans on Twitter and said that the team worked hard to 'come up with something worthy'. He added that the social distancing guidelines prevented them from getting the work done.
The 'Baadshah' star wrote: "I am also aware that many of you are disappointed about the lack of a first look or a teaser from 'RRR'. Believe me when I say that the team is as disappointed as you are. They have worked extremely hard and tried to come up with something worthy of the film. But social distancing guidelines and restrictions prevented the team from getting it done. 'RRR' is a prestigious film that is being helmed by Rajamouli Garu, so I have no doubts that you will be thrilled by the final output. Once again, thank you for all the love."
Bollywood stars Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn will be seen in special appearances in 'RRR'. International actors Ray Stevenson and Allison Doody are also part of the period drama, which is slated to hit the silver screens on January 8, 2021.
