When a hero gets two hits in a row, it has become mandatory to hike his remuneration. It looks like senior hero Nandamuri Balakrishna is following the same route. The ‘Simha’ hero faced a lot of flops till 2021 but he came back to form with ‘Akhanda’. This movie directed by Boyapati Sreenu turned out to be the biggest hit of Balayya till date.
He recently arrived with ‘Veera Simha Reddy’ during the Sankranti season. Sources say that he took 10 crores for this film and this movie which was directed by Gopichandh Malineni became a decent success. Mythri Movie Makers who bankrolled this project got benefitted as it earned nearly 80 crores. Including the non-theatrical rights, the movie earned around 120 crores.
As per recent reports, the star hero is demanding 20 crores for his next film with Anil Ravipudi and the makers are reportedly okay with it. It is Balayya’s 108th film and people are curious to see what kind of movie comes from this combination. Sources say that Kajal Agarwal is going to be the heroine in this flick while Sreeleela plays a crucial role.
Shine Screen banner is going to bankroll this project and senior actor Sharath Kumar is playing a key role in it. Anil Ravipudi is reportedly working very hard to showcase Balakrishna in a powerful role that will please the masses. Reports suggest that there is another heroine in the film and it is Anjali with whom Balayya romanced already in ‘Dictator’. Thaman delivered big time for ‘Akhanda’ and ‘Veera Simha Reddy’ for Balayya and he is the composer for this film too.
