Director : Balayya wants 'Animal' fitting

A close look at Nandamuri Balakrishna's filmography reveals the 'animal' connection of him. Discussed from a very long time, Balayya is keen on 'fitting' that animal's name to his movie titles to score stupendous successes. Association of the word 'Simha' with Balakrishna's movie names always made him victorious at the Box Office. Samarasimha Reddy, Narasimha Naidu, Lakshmi Narasimha and Simha are the best examples. Right now, Balayya is acting in director Paruchuri Murali's action-drama, which is tentatively titled as 'Mahadeva Naidu'. However, the director revealed that Balakrishna wants to fit that animal name in the film's title, as he believes that sentiment strongly. Fans are eagerly waiting for this flick, as Balayya disappointed them during the start of this year with 'Parama Veera Chakra'. Wait and see, if 'Simha' will be fitted in the film's name or will he dares to go with present name for scoring a hit.

Why Balakrishna dumped Jr NTR?

When Nandamuri Harikrishna and Jr NTR are on a crash project to bring down the era of Chandrababu Naidu in TDP, support of Balakrishna has become crucial for both the sides. At knick of the moment when Harikrishna brought the issue of Vallabhaneni Vamsi and Devineni Uma to a point of threatening Naidu's regime, Balakrishna made fool of his brother and son by cautiously taking the Naidu's side. Many agree that Balakrishan dumped Jr NTR for Chandrababu Naidu. The only possible and reasonable rumor for this is a father's love for daughter. Balakrishna has done this only for his daughter Brahmani, who happens to be the wife of Nara Lokesh and daughter-in-law to Nara Naidu. If reaction from Jr NTR on this entire episode is going to be the key in near future, Balakrishna calmly conveyed this Nandamuri - Nara clash as a creation of media. Wishing Naidu on his birthday today, Balakrishna tried to project their family unity. Perhaps a future clash between Jr NTR and Lokesh is fated to happen for the supreme power of TDP.

'Shakti' effect on 'Balayya Babu'

If anyone thinks that the movie 'Shakti' has a positive effect on Nandamuri Balakrishna, then you are wrong. Despite of the film's big blow on producer Ashiwini Dutt's head, Balayya still thinks that the movie is a big hit and is taking some extreme steps now. Right from the super hit stature of 'Magadheera' at the Box Office, Telugu heroes and directors are infatuated a lot towards socio-fantasy flicks. 'Anaganaga O Dheerudu' and 'Shakti' are the two big names that have bitten mud after high expectations in the likes of that Rajamouli’s creation. However, Balayya was shown a flowery picture about the stand of 'Shakti' and now he is considering doing a fantasy flick titled 'Nandeeswarudu', say sources. The story was originally written by writer Chinni Krishna to make his directorial debut. Now, Chinni got it sold out to Balayya and the film is supposed to be directed by Balayya's faction director B.Gopal. This is surely a negative effect on Balayya, a noted director quipped.

Mass Raja disappointed with Director

Good friendship prevails between them off-screen but they seem very professional when it comes to work. Our Mass Raja is said to be disappointed with the way Varma is planning a song in their upcoming film. We are talking about mass hero Raviteja and budding director Ramesh Varma('Ride' fame). Ramesh Varma is coming up with a flick titled 'Veera' that has Raviteja and Kajal Agarwal in the lead. The shoot is almost on the verge of completion and the film can be released as a late summer entertainer. However, a discussion to use an old song's remix version in the movie turned soar between the hero and director. The song is a famous duet of Senior NTR and the director, who happens to be a hardcore NTR fan, wants it at any cost. Even in his first flick 'Ride', Ramesh used a remix song of Balakrishna's 'Danchave Menatta Koothura' to enthrall audience. An old and known tiff between Raviteja and Balayya is said to be the cause behind Raviteja's disappointment in using an NTR song. Wait and see how long this goes and who will give up.

Balakrishna in Nandamuri multi-starrer

It has been a long dream unfulfilled for Nandamuri Fans to get a glance of any three Nandamuri stars sharing the same screen. Producer-cum-Actor Kalyan Ram is the first to make such attempts on his own NTR Arts. Delivering successful film 'Athanokkade' and off late 'Kalyanram Kathi', everything is set for a Nandamuri multi-starrer with the title 'Rudraksha'. Kalyan Ram and Harikrishna are heroes in this film to be directed by AS Ravikumar Chowdary of 'Yagnam' fame. Apparently official details of the movie are still awaited and this father-son duo will portray their real life relation on the screen. Insiders in the industry say, Kalyanram is trying to rope in Balakrishna for a cameo in 'Rudraksha'. What can Nandamuri Fans ask for more?

Raviteja showing hatred on Balakrishna!!!

Cold war between Balakrishna and Raviteja is considered to have begun long time ago on a silly issue which continued to Sankranthi Box Office wars. Although both these star heroes exchange hugs, pleasantries before public but insiders say this is all a show filled with hatred in their hearts. In fact Balakrishna appreciates hard working people, but never likes those who show starry tantrums. This is cited as the reason for clash between the two. Apparently, Nandamuri hero is against Mass Maharaja and even trampled him few years ago. Taking this as matter of prestige, Raviteja offered death blows to Balakrishna continuously in Sankranti occasions. In a fresh instance insiders say Andhra Amitabh advised Charmi during 'Dongala Mutha' shooting not to care about offers, insisting her not to act with Balakrishna in new movies which would lead her career into doldrums. Having known this Balayya expressed his anger before his close aides. Source: Gulte

Death Sentiment Surrounding Balayya

Sentiments run high in the Telugu film industry and it is an open fact. However, those sentiments are usually for Muhurtams, titles, hero-director combos, heroines etc. But right now, a death sentiment seems to be making rounds and that too for Nandamuri Balakrishna.

When Balayya was in the process of remaking the black and white golden hit ‘Narthanashala’, the famous heroine Soundarya died an unexpected death. Now, when he is working on ‘Srirama Rajyam’ tragedy has struck in the form of Mullapudi Venkata Ramana’s demise.

The cine folks are saying that whenever Balayya is trying to go near Ramayana and Mahabharatam, danger is striking. This death sentiment around Balayya is building up strongly. Whether it is sentiment or coincidence, Balayya’s name is in focus. Let us see how he can come out of this.

Balakrishna's Reaction On 'Appalaraju'

The reactions of Nandamuri Balakrishna matter a lot to the Tollywood people. For some, it is fear of his wrath, for some it is respect. So, many were curious to know how Balayya would react to the film ‘KSD Appalaraju’ and more specifically to actor Sunil imitating his ‘Thoda Kottadam’ in one of the songs.

So folks, here is Balayya’s reaction. It seems he called up Sunil and said “Baagane Thoda Kottavu. You did well, I enjoyed it. We must take such things in a sportive way and have some fun”. Sunil was reportedly breathing a sigh of relief.

The talk among cine folks is that it is Balayya’s fans who do extraas and cause chaos if someone points at their star but Balayya is very sportive. He always takes initiative in film related events and other extra curricular activities. One can recall how during Vajrotsavam, there was tension in the air due to Chiru- Mohan Babu friction but Balayya remained pure non-controversial man
