Ram Charan calls ‘RRR’ co-star Jr NTR ‘mad’ driver; says friends shared ‘weird experiences’ after sitting in his car

Ram Charan recently revealed his top choice to sit in the passenger's seat if any co-actor is driving. He went on to take his ‘RRR’ co-star Jr NTR’s name, calling him a “mad” driver but the “safest of the lot”.

The ‘Peddi’ star appeared as a guest on the Season 2 finale of the automobile show 'Cars With Stars'. During the episode, he spoke about cars and driving. When he was asked a bold question, he gave a quick and honest answer. He was asked whom he would trust to drive at 250 km/h while he sat in the passenger seat. Without thinking much, Ram Charan took the name of his close friend and ‘RRR’ co-star Jr NTR.

He said, “There are very few co-actors who enjoy driving. I think NTR is a crazy, mad driver.”

Why did he choose Jr NTR?

Ram Charan also shared that even he had one such moment. He said, “I’ve heard from friends who have had very weird experiences when they sat in the passenger seat. I’ve had one experience with him.” Ram did not give details about that ride. But he ended on a positive note. He said, “But, I guess he’s the safest of the lot.” This showed the strong trust between the two stars.

When asked if there is someone he would never sit with in a car, Ram smiled and refused to take any names.

What’s next for the two stars?

In 2025, Ram Charan was seen in ‘Game Changer’. He will soon appear in Buchi Babu Sana’s sports drama ‘Peddi’, which is set for a March release. After its completion, he will work with ‘Pushpa’ director Sukumar.

On the other hand, Jr NTR made his Bollywood debut with Ayan Mukerji’s ‘War 2'. He is now shooting for Prashanth Neel’s new film. The release date of the film has not been announced yet.
