NTR, are just three letters but a sensation in Telugu Cinema. He entered the Telugu Cinema Industry in 1948 and from 1951 to 1991, he remained the undisputed champion of mass heroes. He could pull crowds with just his name in an genre and his most favourite avatar on screen has been Lord Krishna. In 1983, he decided to enter politics and on 9th January, 1984, he became the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.
He was the first non-Congress political leader to be elected as Chief Minister and he continued to run his party, Telugu Desam successful until his death, barring few dramatic incidents. Making a movie on his life, would be like discussing about the Telugu movie history and also, showcasing some historic changes in political situations in Andhra Pradesh. It would be highly difficult to make one too.
Nandamuri Balakrishna, his son and famous mass hero, decided to take up the challenge. He will be producing the film and Krish is directing it. MM Keeravani will produce the music and the shoot will start from July, it seems. The movie shoot will go on at a brisk pace and will release on 9th January, on the date when NTR created history as CM of Andhra Pradesh. The works are going on at double speed to meet that deadline it seems.
