The ambitious NTR biopic, featuring Nandamuri Balakrishna in the lead role, has started rolling today to coincide with the day when legendary Telugu actor NT Rama Rao donned the grease paint for his debut film Mana Desam in 1947.
The makers of NTR biopic have released a poster to announce the start of the film. The black and white poster features Balakrishna reprising the role of NTR as British Inspector in Mana Desam. NBK’s look and get-up is having a close resemblance to that of NTR in his debut film.
Director Krish, who is known for his deftness in handling period films, has clearly sent out a message that he is not going to compromise on his creativity for this prestigious film.
Balakrishna will be portraying several iconic roles of NTR and special technicians from Hollywood have been roped in to design his looks. The biopic will be a star studded affair with several renowned artists being finalized for important roles.
The film is scheduled for release in 2019.
