Balakrishna's Pandurangadu all set to Release this Month.

Director K. Ragavendra Rao’s period drama cum devotional film Pandurangadu, a remake of the classical hit Panduranga Mahatyam, is ready for release on the 30th of this month. The film stars Balakrishna in a dual role and Sneha,Tabu,Suhasini as the three leading ladies. With music by M.M.Keeravani this film is expected to be yet another musical hit in the league of Ragavendra Rao’s previous devotional hits Sri Ramadasu and Anamayya.






Balakrishna said: "This is my second film with RK Associates, which earlier did Apoorva Sahodarulu with me. Panduranga Mahatyam, which starred my father NTR with producer being my uncle (chinnanna) Trivikrama Rao, completed 50 years last year. It is divine providence that I am acting in the remake of this film now. There is uniqueness in this film compared to its original.



The other prominent actors includes Sunil, Dharmavarapu, Prasad Babu, Ananth, Y. Vijaya etc.

Balakrishna is the second hero to act in MS Raju’s banner next only to Venkatesh who had done ‘Satruvu’ and ‘Deviputrudu’ with MS Raju. The audio was released at Lord Panduranga swami temple near Machilipatnam, film by K Raghavendra Rao. Music composed by MM Keervani. The film would release on May 30th



Producer K.Krishna Mohana Rao, of R.K.Film Associates, decided to postpone the film’s release from 28th May to 30 May for apparently auspicious reasons.

MM Keeravani said: "NTR is my evergreen hero both in reel and real life. It is my sheer luck to score music for Pandurangadu, which has Balakrishna, enacting the role of his father (my hero). I credit the success of the music to the entire team – Suddala Ashok Teja and Chandrabose. I dedicate the audio of Pandurangadu to TV Raju, who originally scored music for Panduranga Mahatyam. Both of us belong to one village near Rajahmundry."

Sadhu is the title of new film and goes to set on january 18 or 20

After the completion of 'Okka Magaadu', Gunasekhar may direct Balakrishna











Though it was a gossip doing rounds in the Film Nagar circles, some more details about the movie had saw the light. According to latest information, Sakhamuri Panduranga Rao is producing the movie, while Bellamkonda Suresh is presenting the flick.

All said and done, the film is most likely to go to sets either on January 18 or 20. One more surprising information is that 'Sadhu' is the title under consideration for the movie.

Balakrishna in Gunasekhar movie

Director Gunasekhar mentioned here that he had announced earlier that he is going to direct a big movie with a heavy budget in the forthcoming days.

Now there is a buzz in Film Nagar that he is going to direct Balakrishna after the completion of 'Okka Magaadu'.

Another interesting point to note here is that a producer, who had a controversial link with Balakrishna, had agreed to bring out the movie. However, there is no official announcement or confirmation about this project. Let's wait and watch how far this rumour is reliable.

Okka Magadu sold for a record sum

BALAKRISHNA might not have had a hit since Lakshmi Narasimha but that has not had any affect on his market value. The buzz is that, the distribution rights for his latest venture Okka Magadu, directed and produced by YVS CHOUDARY have been sold for a mind-boggling sum.

There are high expectations around the film and the Balakrishna-Chowdary combination has generated a lot of interest which is why people were willing to shell out money, says a source close to the actor.

If the Grapevine’s to be believed the filmmakers are poised to make a high profit even before the release.
