Charan, Tarak Belong To Rival Families: Rajamouli

What was the first reaction of young tiger NTR and mega power star Ram Charan, when director SS Rajamouli came up with a proposal of making a multi-starrer Rrr with them? It didn’t even take a minute for both of them to say yes. The same has been informed by Rajamouli himself who said they took to their roles like fish to water.

“I’ve worked with Tarak and Charan before and we delivered some of the biggest blockbusters. The catch here was that they belonged to traditionally rival film families. The advantage I had was that they are close friends in real life. When I put the idea across, it didn’t even take them a minute to say yes.

Before we went to shoot, we did character designing sessions. We sketched out their characterizations to the minutest detail. They took to their roles like fish to water,” said Rajamouli.

When Rajamouli announced Rrr, many feared the project may lead to fan wars. At the same time, they are well aware of the balance act of Rajamouli who can equally elevate multiple characters in his films.
