One will most likely lose count if asked to name the movies of Balayya having ‘Simha’ word in the title. It is reported that the 101st film of Balayya might also have Simha connection.
Various reports and names of directors are making rounds with Puri Jagannath and KS Ravi Kumar as the strong contenders to bag the opportunity of directing Balayya’s 101st film. Ravi Kumar is said to have a slight edge over Puri given the recent track record of the crazy Telugu director.
Reportedly, KS Ravi Kumar has impressed Balayya with a faction backdrop subject ans got his approval. The screenplay work is currently in progress. ‘Reddy Garu’ and ‘Jayasimha’ are the two titles that are under consideration for this film. Both the titles sound powerful and will perfectly suit to Balayya and the faction genre.
Milky beauty Tamannah Bhatia is reportedly being considered to romance Balayya. Given that the milky siren has no Telugu film in her kitty, she might give her nod to this project without worrying about how odd her pairing with the senior hero might look on big screen.
Ravikumar has earlier directed megastar in ‘Sneham Kosam’ and Nagarjuna in ‘Bava Nachadu’. He has a special knack in dealing senior heroes so his combo with Balayya should definitely be worth looking forward to.
