The pre-release event of the film ‘Rudrangi’, starring Jagapathi Babu and Mamata Mohan Das, was held on Thursday. Produced under the Rasamayi Film Productions banner, the event saw popular anchor Suma praising Jagapathi Babu’s dedication. However, the chief guest of the event, Nandamuri Balakrishna, made some surprising comments that garnered attention.
While Suma was speaking, Balakrishna interrupted her and requested the microphone. He questioned why she always talks incessantly and suggested that she occasionally needs to be silenced with a slap. This remark left Suma speechless, as she is known for her quick comebacks, but she chose not to respond to the star hero’s comment. Balakrishna further inquired about Suma’s longtime colleague Rajeev, playfully teasing their association.
When someone from the audience shouted, ‘Balayya babu sexy,’ Balakrishna promptly responded by saying that actresses like Mamata Mohan Das, Vimala Raman, and Suma would feel envious due to such comments. He then playfully sang a song for Suma, teasing her good-naturedly throughout the evening. Videos capturing these moments went viral on social media platforms.
Currently, Balakrishna is busy working on ‘Bhagavanth Kesari,’ directed by Anil Ravipudi. The film stars Kajal as the female lead, with Sreeleela also playing a significant role. Thaman is composing the music, and the movie is slated for release in October.
