In a recent automobile show, actor Ram Charan revealed a surprising anecdote about his friend and fellow actor Jr NTR's driving abilities, leaving fans intrigued. But here's where it gets interesting: he labeled Jr NTR a 'mad driver'!
Charan, a renowned actor himself, appeared on the Season 2 finale of 'Cars With Stars' and was asked a hypothetical question about trusting a colleague to drive at high speeds. Without a moment's hesitation, he named Jr NTR, a co-star from the movie 'RRR'. However, Charan also shared that Jr NTR's driving skills are not for the faint-hearted, describing him as a 'crazy, mad driver'.
The actor went on to explain that he prefers being in control behind the wheel and that Jr NTR's driving style is not for everyone. He hinted at some wild experiences his friends had when riding with Jr NTR, but assured that he is the safest among them. When probed further, Charan remained tight-lipped about any specific incidents.
What makes this revelation even more fascinating is the friendship between Ram Charan and Jr NTR. The two actors, from families with a perceived rivalry, bonded during a celebrity cricket tournament years ago. When director SS Rajamouli announced a film starring both actors, it caught the fans' attention, as the actors' friendship seemed to transcend their families' history. Jr NTR even referred to their bond as a 'support system'.
As for their recent projects, Ram Charan starred in Shankar's 'Game Changer' in 2025, while Jr NTR made his Bollywood debut with 'War 2'. Charan is set to appear in the upcoming sports drama 'Peddi', and Jr NTR is currently working on an untitled film by Prashanth Neel.
And this is the part most people miss: despite Jr NTR's seemingly wild driving style, Charan vouches for his safety. Is this a testament to their friendship, or is there more to this story? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments, especially if you've had similar experiences with 'mad drivers'!
