Naga Vamsi reveals what Balakrishna said about Jr NTR
The latest episode of Unstoppable with NBK on Aha Video has caused quite a stir among fans. The episode featured Balakrishna asking Director Bobby about his past films and the stars he worked with. However, there was one glaring omission: NTR’s Jai Lava Kusa was never mentioned. This led to a huge uproar especially among NTR fans. They accused Balakrishna of intentionally leaving out their favorite star and demanded an explanation.
The backlash was intense with many fans calling for a boycott of his upcoming film Daaku Maharaj and even targeting people associated with it, including Balakrishna, BVS Ravi, and Tejaswini, the Creative Producer. To add to the tension, Naga Vamsi, the producer of Daaku Maharaaj found himself at the center of the controversy. He had previously earned the trust and admiration of NTR’s fans after the successful release of Devara in AP and Telangana. Now, he was shocked to see those same fans calling for a boycott of his film.

In an effort to address the situation, Naga Vamsi took to social media, asking for support from everyone. Even in a recent interview, he clarified that there was no intention to remove NTR’s name from the episode and explained that Balakrishna’s comment was merely about discussing the impact of a film. “In a discussion on the sets, when we were talking about a character, Balakrishna garu told Bobby and me that it would suit Jr NTR well.”
Naga Vamsi is doing everything he can to mend the situation and maintain good relationships between Balakrishna and NTR fans. Though fan wars and boycott calls often have little impact on the success of a film, Naga Vamsi hopes for a peaceful resolution.
