HYDERABAD: If rumours doing the rounds in the industry are to be believed, actress Nayanthara has now been roped in to play the female lead along with actor Nandamuri Balakrishna in his upcoming film which is to be directed by Gopichand Malineni.
The film, which is being tentatively referred to as #NBK111, was officially announced on the star's birthday earlier this year. Sources say that the film, a historical epic, is to be officially launched in November this year. It may be recalled that the film was to originally be launched in October. However, it has been slightly delayed and the pooja ceremony has now been pushed to November.
The film marks Balakrishna’s second collaboration with blockbuster maker Gopichand Malineni, following their sensational hit, 'Veera Simha Reddy'. Backed by producer Venkata Satish Kilaru, who is currently producing the ambitious Pan-India project 'Peddi', #NBK111 will be mounted on a grand scale under the Vriddhi Cinemas banner, promising a high-budget cinematic spectacle.
