Actress Zarina Wahab recently shared a memorable experience involving Man of Masses NTR Jr. She recalled her first interaction with him and was deeply touched by how respectful and caring he was, especially towards his mother, Shalini Nandamuri.
Zarina shared that while she was in Mehendi Patna, she saw Shalini (NTR Jr Mother) standing outside and was invited in for a conversation. As they were chatting, Shalini called NTR Jr. over. He arrived shortly after finishing a game of tennis, and Zarina was impressed by how polite and warm he was. “He spoke to me so kindly,” she shared. “It was lovely to see how much respect he has for his mother and how warmly he treated me.”
