Mega Power Star Ram Charan in his previous interviews expressed his wish of doing the historical character 'Srikrishnadevarayalu'. Instead of doing a cameo role, he wished to do a complete film based on 'Srikrishnadevarayalu's biography. As Ram Charan was a proven hero pulling the audiences to period dramas like 'Magadheera', 'Srikrishnadevarayalu' was also expected to be another magnum opus in his career. Moreover, as per the hiked ticket rates, the movie can collect Rs.125 crores quite easily in the future.
However, Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna appeared to have given little shock to Cherry. If the reports from tinsel town are to be believed, Balakrishna will essay the role of 'Sri Krishnadevarayalu' in his 100th movie and K.Raghavendra Rao is likely to direct this prestigious project. Earlier, Balakrishna was seen as 'Srikrishnadevarayalu' in 'Aditya 369'. Considering the market stamina of Balakrishna, it remains to be seen how well the project can be worked out with Balakrishna.
