Balakrishna's career over the last year or so has been something of a roller coaster. He went from one of the most popular films of 2010, and a personal favorite, Simha, to a similarly themed film titled Parama Chakra Veera that completely tanked at the box office. Following that disaster, he starred in Sri Rama Rajyam which ended up being a modest success, as devotional films still have a pretty decent following in the more rural areas of AP. However, many fans, like me, were waiting to see our ass-kicking NBK back in action.
Adhinayakudu brings together Balakrishna with director Paruchuri Murali, who has catergorically stated that, "Balakrishna will rock", which is encouraging. The film's plot is under wraps, as usual, but NBK will take on three roles during the film, as the teaser clearly shows, and each of his characters will have a different love interest and presumably a different reason for slapping some numbskulls across the fucking face. Though I sincerely doubt it, I really hope this comes to the US with English subtitles. I love his over the top patriotic action madness.
Check out the first teaser below, Balayya!
