It is a known fact that young actresses are not too keen to act opposite senior heroes these days. This has become a concern for filmmakers as they have to shell out big bucks to rope a noted actress or to go with a struggling actress or a total newcomer.
Now, Balakrishna’s forthcoming project faced the same problem. After wrapping up Veerasimha Reddy with director Gopichand Malineni, the Legend actor is set to join the sets of #NBK108, which will be directed by Anil Ravipudi.
The makers have approached Bollywood beauty Sonakshi Sinha to romance Balayya in this flick. It is heard that she gave her nod, but quoted Rs 6 crores as remuneration. Not happy with her mandated pay, the makers began their search for a suitable actress again. It appears like they are finding it hard to convince a few popular divas to share screen space with Balayya.
Reports also suggested that the makers of Akhanda and Veerasimha Reddy faced the same problem while locking the leading lady in the past as well.
