Nandamuri Balakrishna is close to completing Akhanda shoot. He will be taking his immediate next project with Gopichand Malineni onto the floors soon after he is done with Akhanda.
Mythri Movie Makers are bankrolling this project and they have allocated a big budget for the same. The movie is presently working on finalizing the lead cast and crew for the project.
As said by our sources close to the unit, Balakrishna wants the makers to rope in a top actress for the film. He has already conveyed his intention to the makers. Gopichand Malineni and the production team have zeroed in on a list of well-established actresses and they will be initiating talks with these actresses soon.
Balakrishna opines that bringing in a top actress will boost the box office prospects of the film and also catapult the buzz around it. The makers are trying their best to meet Balayya’s demand.
