Nara Lokesh Joins Jagapathi Babu for ‘Jayammu Nishchayammu Raa 2’ Deepavali Special: School Pranks, Balakrishna Anecdotes, and Mass Dialogues
The Deepavali special of ZEE5’s candid talk show ‘Jayammu Nishchayammu Raa with Jagapathi’ – Season 2 features Andhra Pradesh IT Minister Nara Lokesh in a refreshing, off-duty avatar. Moving away from political briefs and governance agendas, Lokesh sits down with veteran actor and host Jagapathi Babu for an unfiltered exchange filled with childhood confessions, family dynamics, and lighthearted revelations.
Following high-profile earlier episodes headlined by Sai Pallavi, Trivikram Srinivas, Thaman S, and Sunil, the third installment shifts focus from cinema insiders to a prominent political figure opening up about his life outside the public eye.
Mischief, Punishments, and Competing with ‘Bala Mavayya’
One of the standout moments from the teaser revolves around Lokesh revisiting his school days. Instead of boasting academic accolades, he candidly confesses to earning more disciplinary punishments than anyone else in his class.
The anecdote quickly pivots into family banter when Jagapathi Babu brings up his uncle, Nandamuri Balakrishna. Lokesh humorously hints that when it comes to childhood mischief, the family benchmark was already set exceptionally high.
“Alludugaru”: When Affection Sparks Suspicion
Reflecting on his marriage to Brahmani, Lokesh recounts an amusing dynamic with Balakrishna during the wedding festivities. Whenever the senior actor formally addressed him as ‘Alludugaru’, rather than feeling flattered, Lokesh recalls instinctively wondering what sort of prank or plan was brewing behind the scenes.
The conversation also touches on Balakrishna’s larger-than-life cinematic persona versus his off-screen vulnerability, with Lokesh teasing the identity of the single person who can make the fearsome star nervous.
