Nandamuri Mokshagna and Prashanth Varma (Photos by arrangement)
No doubt, socio-fantasies are a new fad in T-town and young actors like Nikhil, Teja Sajja have tasted success. Now, it is the turn of Nandamuri Mokshagna, son of Balakrishna, to make his debut with this winning concept. “Mokshagna would be doing a socio-fantasy film as his debut vehicle and it would mix realistic and mystical elements,” says a source. It would be directed by new-age director Prashanth Varma who is basking in the massive success of ‘HanuMan’, “The much-hyped film was launched recently and it is going to be another out of the world experience for Nandamuri fans and audience too,” he adds.
Earlier, Prashanth Varma suggested a makeover for Mokshagna over their interactions and has also done a photoshoot for a couple of days with Mokshagna. “The son of Nandamuri Balakrishna had shed weight and looked handsome in those pics which have gone viral, thanks to Prashanth’s tips,’ says a source and adds, “Prashanth has designed a unique role and story for the scion of Nandamuri family and it would be another gripping saga with loads of action and romance,” he adds.
No doubt, Nandamuri fans were eagerly waiting for the debut of Mokshagna and finally, it began this year. “Mokshagna and Prashanth had struck a chord and found matching wavelengths. They would like to come up with a new-age entertainer that would enthrall fans as well as the general audience,” he points out.
Earlier, Balakrishna watched ‘HanuMan’ and praised the young director for his stylized making and for properly depicting Lord Hanuman. “Lord Hanuman's appearance in the movie befitting his stature and respect was hailed the world over,’ he adds.
After ‘HanuMan’, Prashanth wanted to work with Balakrishna but probably ‘Samarasimha Reddy’ actor asked him to direct his son and then handed over the responsibility. “It is a new challenge for the director and he is game for it,” he concludes.
