Tarun and Uday Kiran are peers who ventured into industry as heroes at the same time in 2000 though Tarun was already known as a child artist. Both were good friends too. Immediately after Uday’s death, Tarun reportedly celebrated his birthday with a grand party which also coincides with his latest film’s shooting completion with Yami Gautham. Industry folks were seen criticizing Tarun for the ill timing of the party!
