Mokshagna cannot be a lover boy – Balakrishna

Nandamuri Balakrishna is the torch bearer for the legacy of great Nandamuri Taraka Ramarao and even though there are Jr. NTR, Tarakaratna and Kalyanram as the third generation torch bearers, Balakrishna’s son Mokshagna’s entry into the film world is long awaited by the fans and general audience as well. While it has been long in discussion, only lately Balakrishna is giving some hints about how he plans his son’s future and first film. As he is too young to play the mass hero characters like his father, Mokshagna is expected to make an entry as a youthful lover boy for few films of his until he is able to find such huge acceptance that his cousin Tarak and his father enjoys among the audience. But Balakrishna denied any possibility of that saying his fans would never accept such lover boy roles from his son as he never had an image of a Romantic hero.

He further said like he learned hard way by assisting his father and playing small roles in his films during his early days, his son might not have to go through the grind like him but he will learn the art by watching him closely rather than going to some acting schools. He said he will be his diction coach and believes that he already understands how bigger the responsibility it is to continue the legacy of a great man his grand father is. The actor also quipped even though he likes Sultan and Dangal, he doesn’t aspire to make any wrestling films like that. And with the change in the taste of audience and owing to his telugu fan base he needs to do subjects catering to that aspect as well. Further adding on Mokshagna, he said he would be busy finalising the subject and script later this year and the shooting should certainly before the end of the year, if not earlier.
