Jr
NTR,
who
entered
into
films
almost
as
an
outsider,
went
on
the
become
the
Thalaiva
of
Tollywood
today.
It
was
just
his
name
and
the
talent
that
backed
him
during
his
initial
days.
Though
NTR's
first
film,
Ninnu
Chudalani,
which
released
exactly
15
years
ago,
bombed
at
the
box
office,
the
spark
in
him
was
noticed
by
many
bigwigs
in
the
industry.
It
just
took
a
hit
for
the
actor
to
become
a
star
overnight
and
accept
him
as
the
next
big
thing
from
the
Nandamuri
family.
The
actor's
second
film,
Student
No
1,
which
happens
to
be
the
debut
film
of
S
S
Rajamouli,
in
fact
changed
NTR's
life
and
had
kick
started
a
new
epoch.
There
was
no
looking
back
for
the
actor
from
then
and
very
soon
he
banked
a
heap
of
praises
for
his
acting
prowess,
unchallenged
dialogue
delivery,
diction
and
dances.
However,
a
series
of
flops
bogged
him
down,
after
a
point.
Apparently,
his
good
will
in
the
industry
and
phenomenal
craze
in
the
masses,
helped
him
to
sustain
in
the
top
league.
We
can
say,
Rajamouli
takes
a
large
piece
of
credit
in
NTR's
career.
Though
Rakhi
was
a
moderate
success,
it
is
Rajamouli's
Yamadonga,
which
brought
back
the
actor
into
the
track.
Most
importantly,
Rajamouli
stressed
on
the
looks
of
the
actor
and
made
him
get
into
shape.
The
tremendous
make
over
for
Yamadonga,
can
be
termed
as
a
turning
point
for
NTR,
as
he
was
always
bashed
by
the
critics
and
audience
for
his
'not
-so-pleasing'
looks.
The
actor,
who
is
currently
shooting
for
Sukumar's
Nannaku
Prematho
has
come
a
long
way
and
we
can
really
call
his
15
years
of
journey,
a
glorious
one
as
he
has
seen
the
highest
of
the
highs
and
the
lowest
of
the
lows
and
still
sustained
his
position
in
the
top
league.
Student
No
1
Student
No
1,
directed
by
Rajamouli,
brought
the
much
needed
recognition
for
the
actor
and
grabbed
the
attention
of
industry
people
to
the
actor's
side.
Aadhi
Aadhi,
directed
by
V
V
Vinayak,
took
the
actor
close
to
the
masses
as
well
as
Nandamuri
fans.
The
film's
success
has
also
brought
him
the
acceptance
as
the
young
Nandamuri
scion.
Simhadri
Simhadri,
directed
by
Rajamouli,
has
established
him
as
the
undisputed
mass
hero
and
the
film
had
set
some
new
records
in
the
industry,
worrying
many
established
top
stars.
Yamadonga
Yamadonga,
directed
by
Rajamouli,
has
reinvented
NTR
and
has
showcased
the
rarest
talent
of
the
actor.
NTR's
look,
diction,
dialogue
delivery
in
the
film
is
a
sensation.
We
can
say
that
the
Yama
character
played
by
him
can
only
be
pulled
off
by
him,
among
his
contemporaries.
Temper
Though
the
film,
directed
by
Puri,
was
an
average
fare,
it
portrayed
the
actor
in
a
different
shade,
which
was
largely
accepted
by
general
audience
too.
It
boosted
up
the
energies
of
the
actor
to
try
out
something
new
in
his
forth
coming
projects.
