It is a known news that NTR, BN Reddy and Nagireddy-Chakrapani awards were announced for 2012 and 2013 by Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna and Murali Mohan today. Balakrishna, himself, revealed that he took part in awards committee as one of the jury members. As such, it appeared the awards were influenced by Balakrishna. Although the winners happen to be legendary personalities and really deserve to win these awards, Balayya may have shown his influence in making those celebs to win the awards.
SP Balasubrahmanyam lent his voice for a song in 'Gauthamiputra Satakarni' while Hema Malini played a crucial role in the same film. Both of them were adjudged NTR Awards.
Singeetham Srinivasa Rao directed 'Aditya 369' and has prepared a script for its sequel. Kodandarami Reddy directed a couple of films of Balakrishna. Both these directors won BN Reddy Awards.
Kodi Ramakrishna delivered a couple of hits with Balayya in 80s while Vanisri is a well wisher of TDP and Balayya. Both of them won Raghupathi Venkaiah Awards.
