Varun Tej Clarifies NTR Dialogue Controversy

Actor Varun Tej has addressed the controversy over a scene in Korean Kanakaraju that imitates senior NTR’s “amateurish” dialogue. Responding to the criticism, Varun said the sequence was filmed in November and was conceived as an imitation of the veteran actor’s dialogue delivery, rather than an attempt to mock or troll him.

Varun explained that imitation and trolling should not be treated as the same thing. His clarification comes amid the discussion surrounding the scene, with the actor emphasizing the intention behind the sequence and drawing a distinction between recreating a familiar style and deliberately making fun of an iconic personality.
