Puri has remained true to his word and has given a complete make-over to NTR. Right from his hair to his dressing style, NTR looks totally different in the film.
The fans too are equally excited watching him in the stills of Temper. But for a star like NTR, getting hits from internet audience isn’t enough.
NTR's core audience consists of mass, rural audience in Ceded, Andhra B, C centres.
His new look must appeal to them as these audiences usually don’t prefer complete make-over of their demi-gods. They are intolerant to radical changes of their hero.
Having said this, many of Tollywood’s top heroes have been trying to slowly get their audiences accept them in varied roles. And looks like, it’s the turn of NTR Jr now.
Though his look is stylish, his characterization is powerful say unit members. So, if his role is powerful, it might still work for his core audience.
Also, if it becomes a hit, he will silence his critics who complain that he looks the same in all his films.
