Today marks the 100th birth anniversary of the legendary actor Akkineni Nageshwara Rao (ANR), and Nandamuri Balakrishna took to social media to honor his remarkable legacy. In his heartfelt tribute, Balayya emphasized that ANR's roles will forever resonate in the hearts of audiences, reflecting on his invaluable contributions to Telugu cinema. “On his centenary, let us all bow our heads and thank him for his immense services to Telugu cinema,” he wrote.
Balakrishna highlighted ANR’s inspiring journey from theatre to the film industry, recognizing him as a symbol of hard work and perseverance. His post serves as a reminder of the lasting impact ANR had on the industry and the community.
This gesture from Balayya comes at a time when rumors of discord between the Nandamuri and Akkineni families have been circulating. The speculation intensified following Balayya's “Akkineni Thokkineni” remarks during an interview and Nagarjuna's absence at the recent NBK50 event. However, Balakrishna's tribute today has sparked hope among fans that the rift may be mending, signaling a positive shift in relations between the two esteemed families of the Telugu film industry.
