Will Jr NTR and Ram Charan dance at the event?
It is customary for all of the Oscars 2023 nominated songs to be sung during the ceremony. So, it is not surprising to see Naatu Naatu played on stage. Fans are interested to see if the two actors, Jr. NTR and Ram Charan, who danced to the song, will appear on stage with the musicians and singers.
Before the Oscars in 2023, Ram Charan is now in the US and participating in several activities. Jr. NTR is currently in India, but he will probably travel to the US in a few days.
On whether Ram Charan and Jr. NTR would perform on stage, there is currently no consensus. If the song wins the Oscar in 2023, the entire team might give a spontaneous performance as well. On this, a formal confirmation is still pending.
