Balayya has some time ago announced that Mokshagna will make his acting debut in 2017. Although rumors erupted about behind the curtains story discussions, no concrete news came regarding the debut.

The latest buzz is that Mokshagna has played the role of son of Pulomavi, Satakarni’s son in GPS. It was earlier heard that he would essay the character of Pulomavi. Makers are very tight lipped about these rumors.

Some say that Mokshagna’s role has been kept a secret purposely and that it might be revealed a day or two ahead of the film’s theatrical release. If it turns out to be true, it will be a festival for Nandamuri fans and an advantage for GPS.

Krish Finishes GPSK Ahead of Time

Critically acclaimed director Krish is known for taking huge gaps between films. It can also be deduced from having a look at his resume, only 6 films in his almost decade long career.

Gautamiputra Satakarni Shooting

However, Krish seems to have undergone a remarkable transition by the time he took his latest project GPSK on to floors. At a time when Rajamouli has been carving out Baahubali for years, Krish has surprised everyone by wrapping up the shoot of his historical film in a record 79 days, which is one day shy of the earlier stipulated time, 80 days.

Krish is of the opinion that he has managed to finish the shooting in time because of the cooperation of Balakrishna Nandamuri, who performed some of the stunts on his own, even in mid-50s. The historical film is gearing up to have the widest possible release for Sankranthi 2017. Post-production work is currently in progress.

Trailer of GPSK is expected on 9th December.

Balayya Beats Hrithik

Balakrishna Nandamuri’s last release ‘Dictator’ might not have reached the humongous expectations at the box office but the film has now set an enviable record on TV beating the film of Hrithik Roshan.

Greek god Hrithik Roshan’s ‘Mohenjo Daro’ world premiere was telecast on Star Gold on 9th of this month. The high-budget historical film, which turned out to be the biggest disaster at the box office, continued its poor run on TV as well. It could fetch only 1511 Rating points.

On the other hand, the Hindi dubbed version of Balayya’s ‘Dictator’, titled ‘Yudh Ek Jung’ was telecast on Rishtey Cineplex channel during the same week, and the film fetched 1649 points. The Balayya starrer not only beat Hrithik’s film but also stood the topped of that week on TV. The rating points are based on only the rural areas.

Royal GPS First Look Out

It seems that the Dasara festival has come two days ahead to Nandamuri fans in the form of the first look of Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna’s 100th film ‘Gautamiputra Satakarni’.

NBK GPS First look

Film’s director Krish has today unveiled the film’s first look poster and it has received a unanimous positive response. Balayya looks Royal in those costumes. His posture of sitting on the throne and the way he puts his hand on the head of a lion oozes royalty. No other actor could create such impact, especially with historical and mythological characters.

This first look treat is just a sample as the film’s first teaser will be unveiled at 10.15 AM on Tuesday, as the real gift of Dasara. Fans are already euphoric, and they can’t wait for the teaser. Krish seems to have studied enough to present the life of Gautamiputra Satakarni, the renowned Amaravati king, who ruled the nation in the early era.

Balayya’s Action in Plane

Nandamuri Balakrishna is known for his powerful dialogue delivery, and the senior actor has once again displayed his unique gift.

NBK Action in Plane

Unlike his regular act in films, this time, Balayya’s act was demonstrated on a plane. On the request of a fan, Balayya was seen mouthing a lengthy dialogue from his father Sr NTR starrer iconic film ‘Mayabazar.’ Balayya’s diction and dialogue delivery were perfect despite he had to render the dialogue all of a sudden, without any preparation.

Credit must be given to Sr NTR for rendering this incredible gift to Balayya, who is inarguably one of the very few actors to pull off mythological characters among this generation of actors.

On the work front, Balayya is currently shooting for his landmark 100th film ‘Gauthamiputhra Sathakarani’.

Balayya’s Frustration on GPS Sets

Nandamuri Balakrishna, who is acting in his prestigious 100th film ‘Gauthamiputra Satakarni’, is heard to have recently vented his anger on the sets.

The reason for Balayya’s anger is the leakage. Stills from this eagerly awaited film continue to make rounds on social media every now and then. While actress Shriya is officially posting few pics on her social media page, other pics are getting leaked somehow, probably by the crew on sets.

Balayya opines that this leakage kills the curiosity on the film and will prove detrimental for the film’s prospects at the box office. He is heard to have cautioned the entire unit against the further leak of stills from sets.

Currently, the film’s shooting is progressing in Madhya Pradesh. Songs are being canned. Director Krish is working for the film without taking any break even after his marriage. Sankranthi 2017 is the target.

Balayya Performs Rajasuya Yagam

Nandamuri Balakrishna is reportedly shooting for the Rajasuya Yagam, one of the ancient rituals performed by emperors who ruled India during various time periods, sequence.

Among the emperors who ruled India in the ancient period, Telugu warrior king Gauthamiputhra Satakarni is credited for commencing Rajasuya Yagam, which was a sacrificial Yagnam adorned by Hindu emperors in particular.

Tollywood director Krish, who is currently making a film on the life of Gauthamiputra Satakarni, is said to be shooting the pivotal Yagnam sequences in Madhya Pradesh. Balakrishna, Hema Malini, Shriya and various other pivotal actors are said to be part of this crucial part of the film.

Rajasuya Yagam was not depicted in any Indian film so far. If Krish can successfully bring that unseen golden era onto the silver screen, the film is sure to stand as one of the milestones not only in Tollywood but also in Indian cinema history.
