The gap between Nandamuri Balakrishna’s family and NTR Jr has remained open. Despite some efforts to patch up, nothing has been changed.
Though they exchange pleasantries whenever they cross paths, relations have not improved. The latest example is a comment made by Balakrishna’s younger son-in-law Bharat.
In an interview to a news channel, Bharat made strong comments against NTR Jr saying that their party doesn’t need him.
“TDP has enough young talented blood to bring the party back in power. It doesn’t require NTR Jr to lead the party. Why do we need him at all,” he said.
This is a clear indication that he got approval from his father Nandamuri Balakrishna to attack NTR Jr.
The talk among the party cadre is that TDP will only regain its power if NTR Jr takes reins on his hands. The party needs a charismatic face.
Bharat is a nobody in front of NTR Jr. Still, the actor is keeping mum on the comments. He doesn’t want to react.
He is focused on completing Rajamouli’s “RRR” and will remain silent about political controversies.
NTR has plans for his political entry but he will step in after 6 or 7 years, not now. Till then he will not speak anything.
But insiders say NTR's brother Nandamuri Kalyan Ram is not happy with Bharat's comments.
