Can Jr. NTR compete with Star heroes?

Entry of Junior Ntr into the field followed by delivering of successes like ‘Simhadri’ made him stand on such a platform to take a direct, face to face attack with BO stamina of Chiranjeevi, who was then the Numero Uno of Tollywood. Days have changed, BO analysts these days are predicting that Junior Ntr is slowly loosing the advantageous ground standing in the back rows of contemporary star heroes.

‘Feared with ‘Shakti,’ even the other releases from Tarak in last six to seven years failed to lift his star status. He stands at same position what he was long before. There is neither an improvement in his BO collections nor a change in his style nor a change in his selection of roles. In particular, revenue graph of Junior Ntr is showing a declining trend in Nizam area. Better that he register one more hit on the scale of ‘Simhadri’ or ‘Aadi’ to make himself stand on equal footing with other young star heroes who are continually trying the versatile characters convincing the audience. Still there is heavy untapped potential in him,’ said a film analyst.
