Tharun of 'Nuvve Kavali' fame is occasionally remembered by the Tollywood media. If there is nothing genuine to write about him, fake news is created to put him in the news cycle.
The latest example is this. It is being written that the actor will be playing a key role in SSMB28. This has been rumoured mainly because Trivikram Srinivas roped in Sushanth for a key role in 'Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo'. Since the director had cast a small-time hero in his previous film, a piece of news in a similar vein has to be written now so that it looks believable. That's the media logic.
In the past, Tharun was remembered ahead of 'Pushpa: The Rise'. It was rumoured that he would be dubbing for Fahadh Faasil. Why? Because he had dubbed for the Mollywood actor's Telugu-dubbed film 'Anukoni Athidhi' earlier'. Logic!
In 2020, Tharun was remembered by the media ahead of Bigg Boss Telugu. At that time, the actor himself dismissed the rumour that he was part of the reality show.
