Nandamuri Balakrishna, the name itself is a slogan for the fans. As Balayya celebrates his birthday today, let's look back at his illustrious career which goes back several decades.
Balakrishna is one of those few actors who has done films in every genre like, mythological, action, folk, comedy, science fiction, drama and social. He has played so many characters which are memorable to date in the hearts of many.
Balakrishna made his debut in the film Thatamma Katha and acted in 107 movies so far. He is now acting in his 108th film Bhagavath Kesari and the special aspect is that he has not acted in even a single remake so far.
Balakrishna has the record of playing the most double roles as he has played them in 17 films to date. This makes him quite special in the Telugu film heroes. He also appeared in a triple role in a film called Adhinayakudu.
The year 1987 is quite special as eight films released in a single year and most of them were huge hits. He has acted in over 10 films with his dad, the legendary NTR. He has acted in 13 films in the direction of Kodanda Rami Reddy.
Balayya is a huge devotee of Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy and he uses the word Simha in most of his films like Samara Simha Reddy, Narasimha Naidu, Lakshmi Narasimha, Simha, and Veera Simha Reddy, the recent release.
Balayya's son, Nandamuri Mokshagnya is all set to make his film debut soon. The lean look of his son has gone viral on social media on the occasion of the star's birthday.
Balakrishna is a two time MLA from the Hindupur constituency and has a great name in that area. He runs the Basavatarakam cancer hospital in Hyderabad and treats many patients free of cost. On this occasion, we wish Balayya a happy birthday and wonderful year ahead.
