The Tollywood circles are in for a pleasant shock hearing about Jr NTR’s marriage that will take place soon. He will be tying the knot with Pranitha, the daughter of Narne Srinivas, a city realtor and owner of Telugu news channel Studio-N. Pranithaa’s mother Narne Mallika happens to be the niece of TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu.

Confirmation of the firmed up marriage proposal was received from Jr NTR’s family as well as from those close to the TDP chief. Interestingly, it was Naidu who took the initiative and played the match-maker to perfection.

The marriage will be held in May. The betrothal ceremony is widely believed to be conducted next month but a family source said the engagement had already taken place in a low-key ceremony three days ago.

Pranitha is presently in college studying in second year of Intermediate. Jr NTR reportedly gave his nod as soon as the proposal was made by Naidu.
