It’s already confirmed that
Sumanth Kumar will essay the role of his
grandfather
, the late legendary Akkineni Nageswara Rao in the upcoming biopic of
NTR helmed by maverick filmmaker Krish. The 43-year-old versatile actor is currently involved in the shooting of the supernatural thriller ‘Subrahmanyapuram’ and is awaiting the release of ‘Idam Jagath’.
This morning, the ‘Godavari’ actor took to Instagram and posted “Driving in #ANR's last car for my first day of shoot, to play #ANR in the #NTRBiopic #NTR”. It is surely a special day for Sumanth to step into the shoes of his maternal grandfather. Reports suggested that he instantly agreed to be a part of NTR’s biopic after listening to the narration by Krish.
While Nandamuri
Balakrishna
is portraying the titular role of his father, Bollywood actress
Vidya Balan will be seen as NTR’s wife Basavatarakam. The recently leaked picture of
Rana Daggubati as Nara
Chandrababu Naidu
instantly went viral all over social media and the ‘Baahubali’ actor bared a striking resemblance to the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister.
Primarily shot in Telugu, NTR will be released in Tamil and Hindi considering the massive following of NTR on both cinema and political mediums.
