From the time the biopic on the great N T Rama Rao has been announced, there have been many twists and turns attached to it. The announcement from other moviemakers doing a similar project, director Teja doing some part of it and walking out of it abruptly and an exhaustive effort to lock the leading lady are few examples.

The biggest issue has been finding the replacement for Teja because it takes a director of special caliber to handle a project like this. Now, after so many names bouncing around, one man seems to have come forward. He is none other than the intellectual filmmaker Krish and it is heard that he is having few rounds of discussions before taking a final call.

Meanwhile, many feel Krish is the perfect man for handling this biopic because he has already done one biopic with Nandamuri Natasimham Balakrishna in the form of ‘Gautamiputra Satakarni’. Also, Krish has gained good experience in churning out biopics so he has the right sensibility to shape this larger than life project.
