Speaking at a promotional event, Prashanth Varma expressed his admiration for Balakrishna’s iconic films like ‘Bhairavadweepam’ and ‘Aditya 369,’ highlighting their influence on his cinematic journey.
“I am a big fan of Balakrishna’s films, and I requested Balakrishna Garu to watch my upcoming film ‘Hanu-Man’ and then decide about working with me.” Varma shared at the event. He had the opportunity to collaborate with Balakrishna preeviously while creating engaging promos for the talk show ‘Unstoppable NBK,’ during which he had the chance to interact with the scion of the Nandamuri family and was impressed by Balakrishna’s amiable nature.
“Balakrishna is the sweetest among the actors I have worked with. Fans were enthusiastic about us working together, and even Balakrishna expressed openness to the idea. However, I urged him to watch my film ‘Hanu-Man’ and then make a decision. My vision is to create a larger-than-life movie with him,” Varma concluded.
While Balakrishna has recently favored collaborations with younger directors like Gopichand Malineni, Anil Ravipudi, and Bobby, Varma’s reputation for innovative thinking and delivering unique themes positions him as a promising choice for a potential partnership. As discussions unfold, fans eagerly anticipate the prospect of witnessing the creative synergy between the veteran actor and the director known for pushing the boundaries of conventional cinema.
