Nandamuri Balakrishna has a habit of scoring some roaring hits and his films end up as huge hits or clean debacles at the box-office. He never thinks about competition and he has a habit of releasing his films even between several releases. He came up with NBK Lion last year and the movie ended as the biggest debacle in his career.
Though the film had unique content, the director failed to narrate the movie in an engaging way. Trisha and Radhika Apte played the female leads in this intense action entertainer. Balakrishna has taken a break after the film’s release and he wanted to come up with a commercial entertainer in his 100th film.
