Nandamuri Balakrishna is not a happy man after the disaster of NTR - Kathanayakudu. He pinned all his hopes on his next film titled NTR - Mahanayakudu which is hitting the screens this Friday. Soon after the film's release, Balakrishna will shift his focus towards politics as the elections are heading in AP. Balakrishna signed his next film for Boyapati Sreenu which is expected to roll post elections. Balakrishna is said to have given strict instructions for Boyapati after his recent film Vinaya Vidheya Rama ended up as a dud.

Balakrishna slashed down the quoted budget of the film from Rs 70 crores to Rs 50 crores. He even wanted Boyapati to narrate him the bound script before heading for shoot. Boyapati who met Balakrishna recently accepted the conditions and is working on the script. NBK Films will produce this film which will hit the screens during Sankranthi next year. Once Boyapati wraps up the script work, he will finalize the cast and crew members.
