Jr NTR told: 6–8 weeks, full stop
Team says shoulder injury on July 27; doctors advise complete rest. No word yet on where it happened or what it means for Dragon’s dates.
Jr NTR’s team says he has been advised complete rest for six to eight weeks.
Jr NTR has sustained a shoulder injury and has been advised complete rest for six to eight weeks, his team said on July 27. The update names the attending specialists as Dr J. Madhusudan Rao and Dr R. A. Purnachandra Tejaswi, and asks fans not to panic. According to the statement, the actor underwent a medical evaluation and will get further official updates when appropriate.
The statement does not say where or how the injury happened, and it does not mention a production halt or a schedule change for Dragon, the film he is currently attached to. Reports this week tied the incident to an action sequence and even to hospitalisation; the team’s note on record does neither.
So the facts for now are the boring, useful kind: shoulder injury, six to eight weeks of complete rest, no cause for panic — and no official word yet on what it does to Dragon’s calendar.
