Gautamiputra Satakarni is the biggest and highest budget film in the career of Nandamuri Balakrishna. He worked in total of 99 movies other than this one but this movie is the most important and highly dear to him. He wants every possible way of promotion and is looking to make the film most special one for audience as well.Being from a political family and himself a political leader, MLA of Hindupur, Balakrishna is leaving no stone unturned in making the effort worthwhile. Krrish came up with the story after a long research and he wanted the film to be something special. When he heard Balakrishna is looking for a subject to make his 100th film, he saw the chance and wrote a story that lasts for 2 hrs 20 mins on the celluloid and tried to chronologically present the life story of the great Telugu warrior King and First Emperor of South India.
Since its inception, the GSPK team is trying to make a big event film in all possible ways and not just looking at it as a 100th film of a popular actor but it is also looking at it as an important historical film that is necessary to be told in this day and time. Giving importance to a woman is the underlying theme and social message that this film wants to project in an entertaining way.Going by the theme and historical importance, the crew is deciding to have premieres and invite most important guests to the screenings.
By December 20th, the first copy of the movie will be ready and the team will decide on further promotional events after watching the first copy. But inviting Chief Minister to your screening is not some child’s play so the team planned ahead and invited Kalvakuntla Chandrashekhar Rao and Nara Chandra Babu Naidu, Chief Ministers of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, respectively at the same time. Apparently both of them agreed to allot time from their busy schedules looking at the historical importance of the subject. 3rd January would be the date and team is getting ready in the Premiere arrangements.With Balakrishna, Shriya Saran as Vashishtha Devi and Hema Malini as Gautami Devi are playing the most crucial roles. Shiva Raj Kumar, Kannada popular hero, will be seen in an inspired cameo.
