‘NBK111'announced: Balakrishna, Gopichand Malinenireunite for a historical action spectacle

Hans India2 days ago

Nata SimhamNandamuri Balakrishna is on a winning streak with back-to-back blockbusters, and now, he's all set to raise the bar even higher with his next venture, NBK111. The film was officially announced with a striking and symbolic poster that hints at a powerful and layered character for Balakrishna.
Teaming up once again with director Gopichand Malineni, NBK111 marks a reunion of the successful duo who delivered a blockbuster earlier with Veera Simha Reddy. This time, the pair are venturing into new territory—a historical action extravaganza, promising grandeur and intensity in equal measure.
The announcement poster has already created a storm among fans. Featuring a majestic lion with its face split between raw ferocity and battle-hardened armor, the visual metaphor reflects Balakrishna's upcoming character—one that balances primal rage with unshakable resilience. It hints at a tale of valour, vengeance, and legacy, setting high expectations for what's to come.
Produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru under the banner of Vriddhi Cinemas, the film is set to be mounted on a grand scale, ensuring top-tier production values and technical finesse. While Balakrishna is no stranger to historical roles, NBK111 will mark director Gopichand Malineni's first foray into the genre, making it an ambitious leap in his directorial journey.
The film will go on floors once Balakrishna wraps up Akhanda 2: Thandavam, which is currently in production with BoyapatiSreenu.
With such a formidable team and an exciting genre twist, NBK111 is poised to be another roaring success in Balakrishna's blockbuster arsenal.

Nandamuri Balakrishna Wrote Medical Exam with Eyes Closed Before Choosing Acting

Tollywood actor Nandamuri Balakrishna celebrated his 65th birthday today (June 10). The birthday celebrations were held at Basavatarakam Indo American Cancer Hospital in Hyderabad. Balakrishna cut a cake in the presence of hospital staff and children. Fruits were also distributed to patients as part of the event. Speaking on the occasion, Balakrishna said, 'My whole life is an open book. There are no secrets. My mother's wish was to provide affordable medicine to the poor. That is why we established this hospital.' He shared that the trust was set up to provide world-class medical treatment to those in need. He also recalled how his father, the late N.T. Rama Rao (NTR), once wished for him to pursue a career in medicine. 'After I completed my Intermediate studies, my father wanted me to study medicine. I applied for the course and received my hall ticket just 10 minutes before the exam. I went in and wrote the test with my eyes closed,' he said. However, driven by his passion for acting, Balakrishna entered the film industry and went on to build a successful career that now spans over 50 years. Reflecting on being awarded the Padma Bhushan by the Central Government, Balakrishna clarified that the honor was not for his contributions to cinema, but for his social service. Balakrishna added that he learned how to balance being an actor, hospital chairman, and MLA from his father NTR. He concluded by emphasizing the need for selfless service and assured that he will continue to strive to provide better healthcare services for the underprivileged.
