Tollywood is witnessing the trend of biopics in fresh. To add the value, makers are penchant to cast heirs in the roles of the legends. Everyone knows how Mahanati makers cast Naga Chaitanya in the role of his grand father ANR. They tried to cast Ntr in the role of senior Ntr but with Ntr rejecting it, makers finished those scenes with the use of technology.
In Ntr biopic, Balakrishna is playing the role of dad Ntr and then makers roped in Sumanth to play the role of his grand father ANR. Inside talk is Mokshagna will see as young Ntr in the film. Analysts are wondering why makers are running after their heirs to play the roles of fathers or grand fathers. Why can’t they think or expand their horizon to make biopics more meaningful rather than get confining to respective heirs.
Movie lovers are hoping that makers will think big and make biopics unravel the mysteries behind legends rather then sing praises for their heirs and their dynasties.
