Jr NTR – Tillu will stay with us all our lives

Tillu Square, the sequel to DJ Tillu, headlined by Star Boy Siddhu Jonnalagadda, Anupama Parameswaran, is making all the right noises in the theatres, breaking newer records by the day. The Mallik Ram-directed film, bankrolled by S Naga Vamsi under Sithara Entertainments and presented by Srikara Studios, has now grossed over Rs 100 crore in just nine days. Commemorating its glorious run, the entire team came together for a success meet, for which Devara star Jr NTR and star writer-director Trivikram were the chief guests.

At the event, Jr NTR shared, “I have watched many films of Siddhu but I interacted with him only after the pandemic. He is obsessed with cinema and consistently focused on doing justice to the characters in his films. Very rarely do we find people like that. Tillu is a character that’ll remain with us all over lives, he is like the boy-next-door and hats off to the team for creating this.”

“I had great fun while doing comedy scenes in Adhurs, Aravinda Sametha. It’s a blessing to entertain audiences. It requires courage to dream and fear/discipline to bring it alive. I want Siddhu to work all his life and I am sure it will take him forward. I trust Siddhu and Vishwak to create a new wave in Telugu cinema and I am proud of their growth,” he added.

“I understand that director Mallik Ram wouldn’t have had it easy with the sequel and he has done a great job. With Devara this year, I’m doing my best to make my fans feel proud of our work and hold their collars high. I wish crowds a happy Ugadi.”
