Did Jr NTR Use Ozempic for His Weight Loss Transformation?

The internet lit up with speculation after a viral photo of Jr NTR’s latest appearance left fans stunned. The actor showcased a noticeably leaner physique while vacationing in Dubai, sparking concerns about his health. Some fans even began to wonder if the RRR star’s transformation was the result of Ozempic treatment. However, these rumors have been debunked. According to HashtagU, Jr NTR’s team has officially confirmed that the actor has not used Ozempic to achieve his recent transformation.

In fact, Jr NTR is in good health and has simply adopted a new diet and fitness routine in preparation for his upcoming film NTR31 with director Prashanth Neel. The team clarified, “He is fine and has been following a new diet. He has been working on his next film with Prashanth Neel, and for his look in it, he has adopted a new fitness regime since February. The transformation is a result of that.”

What Is Ozempic?

For those unfamiliar, Ozempic—scientifically known as Semaglutide—is a prescription medication primarily used to treat type 2 diabetes. It works by helping regulate blood sugar levels and is often administered through a weekly injection.

Beyond diabetes management, Ozempic has also gained attention as a long-term weight loss solution. It slows digestion, which helps the body feel fuller for longer, ultimately supporting better energy retention and aiding in weight reduction.

Meanwhile, Devara star Jr NTR has been juggling a packed schedule. He recently wrapped up shooting for his Bollywood debut, War 2, alongside Hrithik Roshan. Touted as a high-octane entertainer, the film is set to hit theaters on August 14.

Up next, Jr NTR is all set to resume filming for his much-anticipated collaboration with Prashanth Neel on April 22, as confirmed by the film’s team. Rumor has it that the Telugu actioner might be titled “Dragon”, though no official announcement has been made. Still, the buzz surrounding the project continues to build, with fans eagerly awaiting a cinematic spectacle.
