A galaxy of stars from the film industry and leaders from the political field graced the celebration held at Novotel in Hyderabad on 1 September marking the golden jubilee year of the film career of actor Balakrishna.

Speaking on the occasion, hero Chiranjeevi expressed his desire to act with Balakrishna in a faction movie. “It was Samarasimha Reddy of Balakrishna that influenced me to act in Indra,” he revealed.

Being the son of NTR, Balakrishna has donned several roles well performed by his father and won laurels from the audience, observed Chiranjeevi.
