Makers of NTR biopic are apparently following the strategy of Baahubali by releasing first look poster of actors from the film. On the eve of senior actor Kaikala Satyanarayana who is playing the role of legendary filmmaker Hanumappa Muniappa Reddy, they have released his look from the film. In the poster, Kaikala aka HM Reddy is seen observing negative film through magnifying glass.
HM Reddy was a producer and director known for his works in Telugu cinema. He directed the first south Indian talkie film Kalidas shot in Telugu and Tamil. He then produced and directed the first full length Telugu sound film, Bhakta Prahlada in 1932.
Good thing is Kaikala Satyanarayana is finally doing a film after a long gap and more importantly its biopic of NTR with whom he associated for uncountable films.
Balakrishna is playing NTR in the film titled NTR directed by Krish. The film co-produced by Balakrishna himself will release during Sankranthi, 2018.
