A throwback picture has generated a lot of buzz amongst the Tollywood movie fans lately! The snap that was captured some 25 years ago shows and shows former cricketer Azharuddin on the sets with none other that Balakrishna. Balakrishna was shooting for Aditya 369 when Azharuddin came down to visit. Not many are aware that Balakrishna and Azhar had studied together in Nizam College.
An English daily quoted producer Sivalenka Krishna Prasad as saying, “Azhar visited the sets of Aditya 369 as he was close to Balakrishna. Both of them are still good friends,” If you look closer you will notice that actor Subhalekha Sudhakar is also there in the photo. The nexus between T’Town and cricket go way back as the producer added,
“Sudhakar is a huge cricket lover and he knew many cricketers such as Azharuddin. Azhar, Gundappa Viswanath, Arun Lal and the rest of the cricket team visited his house in Chennai, when team India played matches there”.
