ANR and NTR are huge names in Telugu Cinema. They managed to stay as stalwarts and matinee idols for decades inspiring Krishna, Krishnanam Raju, Sobhan Babu, Chiranjeevi, Balakrishna, Nagarjuna and many other later generation stars.
For this latest generation Chiranjeevi turned out to be huge inspiration, but the legends have inspired him too. So, when a movie about NTR is planned by his son, Balakrishna himself, we expect ANR, SVR, Savitri and few others mention in the film for sure.
ANR and NTR even became family friends and friendly rivals according to the situations. Even their children remain close. But Nagarjuna and Balakrishna seem to have a cold war going on for sure.
They used to really close but for reasons known to them, they decided to give cold shoulder to each other most of the times. Balakrishna did not even come to see ANR's last rites and this consolidated that both are having huge differences.
Nagarjuna during an award event announced that he and Balakrishna doesn't have any issue but then they remained cold to each other at other events.
So, now Sumanth confirming that he will play ANR in NTR biopic, the major discussion is did Nag accept this proposal?
There is a rumour that Naga Chaitanya was never asked due to Nagarjuna even though he played ANR already in Mahanati. Keerthy Suresh is once again asked to play Savitri in NTR but ANR was given to Sumanth.
So, did Nag gave his blessings for NTR biopic? Or did Sumanth took his own decision and Nag let it be? The discussion will go on until someone opens up about it, we doubt it though.
