Balakrishna- Anil Ravipudi's 'NBK108' New Schedule To Begin Soon?

Kajal Aggarwal and Sree Leela have reportedly been roped in to star in the upcoming movie

Enjoying the success of his Sankranti release Veera Simha Reddy and the untethered popularity of the talk show ‘Unstoppable with NBK’, Nandamuri Balakrishna is all set to rejoin the sets of his next in the direction of Anil Ravipudi. The project, which is tentatively titled NBK108, wrapped up its first schedule in late 2022 and involved a massive jail set.

The second schedule was supposed to start on February 23 but was postponed due to the demise of the actor Taraka Ratna, who is also Balakrishna’s nephew. Balakrishna is known for his love and affection toward Taraka Ratna. According to reports, Anil Ravipudi shared that Balakrishna called him and demanded a good role in the film for Taraka Ratna. But before everything worked out, the actor passed away. 

Initially, it was said that the new schedule would begin on March 23. However, the sources are now saying that the filming will begin on March 4 itself. Kajal Aggarwal has apparently been roped in to play the female lead for the movie, while Dhamaka actress Sreeleela has been approached to play a pivotal role in the film.

S Thaman has been roped in as the music director for ‘NBK108’, marking three back-to-back collaborations of Balakrishna and Thaman, with the previous two being - Akhanda and ‘Veera Simha Reddy’.
