Nithiin Shares About His On-Set Friendship With Nani

Nithiin is arriving with 'Extra Ordinary Man' on 8th December and Nani is releasing his 'Hi Nanna' on 7th December. Within a gap of one day two crazy projects are getting released and it will be an interesting weekend at the box office. While both the heroes enjoy a lot of craze among the audience now, there was a time when they both worked together on a movie.

As we know, Nani started his career as an assistant director. He worked under legends like Bapu and K Raghavendar Rao. When the latter was making 'Allari Bullodu' back in 2005 with Nithiin, Nani was the assistant director to that movie. During a recent interview, Nithiin revealed his on-set friendship with Nani.

He said that Nani was the only person on the set to call him by his name on sets which Nithiin found very refreshing. At that time, everyone used to call the hero 'Babu' and Nithiin did not like it at all. When Nani was calling him by his name, the film's producer called Nani and scolded him for calling the hero by his name. Nithiin revealed that he called Nani immediately and asked him to call 'Niths' from then. He remembers this sweet experience with Nani which happened 18 years back.

He also said that they faced each other long back and both the films failed. Nithiin hoped that 'Hi Nanna' would achieve the same level of success as 'Sita Ramam' and that his film would become successful like 'Bimbisara'. Hope Nithiin's wish comes true.
