Health comes first. Glad the surgery went well at KIMS - they have an excellent team. But I have to say, it's a bit concerning that actors push their bodies so hard during action sequences. Junior NTR is a powerhouse performer, but I hope he takes this time to heal properly. No need to rush back. His fans will understand. 💪

"Son of Shiva, Pride of Parvathi" - what a tagline! But first, take care of that shoulder, NTR. We saw how RRR put him on the global map. Now with Trivikram and Anirudh on board, this film is going to be massive. Get well soon, Tarak! The whole country is waiting for your magic. 🔥
