Earlier, in an interview, Jr NTR informed fans that Ram Charan and he will not be performing on the song. Speaking with KTLA, Jr NTR had said, “I don’t think that’s happening (him and Ram Charan dancing to Naatu Naatu). I was looking forward for it to happen. But, unfortunately, we didn’t have time to rehearse. Because we don’t want to go on to the biggest stage in the world and go unprepared.”
Jr NTR added, “So, we were busy, I was busy and so was maybe Charan was busy with a lot of prior commitments back home. So, I don’t think we will be performing but our music director (MM Keeravani), the singers of the song Rahul Sipligunj, and my brother Kaala Bhairava, they will be performing the song.”
