On the career-front, Balakrishna recently shot for a Telugu talk show called Unstoppable. He has donned the hat of a host for the first time in his long career.
In the show’s first episode, actor Mohan Babu was invited as the special guest. It will be aired on the Aha OTT platform.
Balakrishna also awaits the release of the Telugu film Akhanda, which marks his reunion with director Boyapati Srinu.
This project will feature Balakrishna in dual roles. Apparently, one of the characters is of an aghora and the makers have kept his look under wraps. The team recently shot a major portion in Varanasi. SS Thaman has been roped in to compose music.
Interestingly, Balakrishna was seen playing dual roles in his last release, Ruler (2019). He was seen playing a politician as well as a cop.
