Nandamuri Balakrishna is on cloud nine as his latest release, Veera Simha Reddy, has become a blockbuster hit at the box office. The film, helmed by Gopichand Malineni, is doing well at the ticket counter, and the team held a grand celebration in Hyderabad a few days back. The function was held in high spirits, and Balakrishna gave a powerful speech like always. But some of his words turned out to be quite controversial.
Taking at the event, mentioning his dad, NTR’s colleagues, Balakrishna said, “My father, Sr NTR, had some contemporaries, Ranga Rao, Akkineni, Thokkineni, and a few others,”. However, how he used the word “Tokkineni” in a disgraceful manner has left the fans of ANR very angry.
After a couple of days, Naga Chaitanya reacted to this. The actor took to his social media to lash out at Balakrishna. Naga Chaitanya took to Twitter to say that anyone who disrespects the legendary actor is disrespecting themselves. Naga Chaitanya, the grandson of Akkineni Nageswara Rao, wrote, “Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao Garu, Akkineni Nageswara Rao Garu, and SV Ranga Rao were great sons of Telugu cinema. Disrespecting them is degrading ourselves.”

We have to wait and see to what extent this Akkineni and Nandamuri issue will take place.
