After more than two decades in the film industry, actress Vidya Balan is debuting in Tollywood with NTR’s biopic, also starring Balakrishna. According to reports by leading media organisations, the 39-year-old actress is being paid about 1.5 crores to play the actor-turned-politician’s wife, Basavatarakam.

Earlier, director Teja was roped in to direct this venture. But, he opted out after having creative differences with Balayya. Later, Krish Jagarlamudi of Gautamiputra Satakarni fame was signed on to direct the film. Reports also suggested that actor Rana Daggubati was approached to play chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu, who is NTR’s son-in-law as well. The film is produced by Balakrishna, Sai Korrapati and Vishnu Vardhan Induri, and will release in Telugu, Tamil and Hindi.
