Charan and Jr NTR were friends before working on “RRR” and it needed someone like Rajamouli to bring them together on the big screen.

“If not for Rajamouli, I swear I don’t think we would have had this combination for any other director. Whatever we have earned and made our careers… They used to say that we have been together for 35 years. There were rival families but we never had it in person…
