Anil Ravipudi said that he is a big fan of Nandamuri Balakrishna and used his references in his first film, Pataas. After that, in many of his interviews, he said he is waiting for the offer from NBK.
Again during F2 movie promotions, he recently said, “I am trying to get in touch with the team of Nandamuri Balakrishna and the actor to give him a narration from a long time.
I have been waiting with two to three ideas, since the day I got my first chance to direct a film. Nandamuri Kalyanram did ask to prepare a script but I waited to prove myself over the time. Today, I am confident to handle such a big film.
I hope after Boyapati Srinu film as the rumors say, I get the call to write a film for Balayya garu and direct him. I am waiting for NTR biopic with bated breath,” concluded the director. His multi-starrer comedy, F2 will release on 12th January.
