Rishab Shetty with Jr NTR and his mother
Jr NTR is one of the biggest superstars of the Telugu film industry. Despite the massive success he has seen, the actor continues to be a mumma's boy and his recent post is proof. He fulfilled his mother's dream of bringing the actor to her hometown Kundapura in Karnataka. The day was made even more interesting with the presence of director Prashanth Neel and Kannada film actor Rishab Shetty.
On Saturday, NTR Jr. took to X where he shared pictures featuring him, his mother, Prashanth Neel and Rishab. In the first picture, NTR Jr can be seen posing with his mother Shalini. While his mother looked lovely in a peach-coloured saree, the superstar opted for a blue shirt and denim pants for the occasion. The second picture sees Rishab joining the mother-son duo. The third picture sees Rishab, Jr NTR and Prashanth waiting for their meal at the temple.
For the caption, he wrote, "My mother's forever dream of bringing me to her hometown Kundapura and seeking darshan at Udupi Sri Krishna Matha has finally come true! To make it happen just before her birthday on September 2nd is the best gift I could give her."
