After dramatic twists and turns, Balakrishna is said to have zeroed in on who to work with next. For the uninitiated, the Nandamuri actor was supposed to do Krishna Vamsi's 'Rythu', but since Amitabh Bachchan (who was offered a crucial role) apparently didn't give the nod, the project fell apart. Before the release of 'Gautamiputra Satakarni', Balayya said that 'Rythu' won't be there if Big B doesn't act.

A film with Sathyadev of 'Lion' fame, titled as 'Sarvabhowma', is also on the anvil, but meanwhile, director KS Ravikumar has impressed the mass star. In all likelihood, the 101st film will be directed by KSR and the same will be bankrolled by C Kalyan.

While Ravikumar comes with the experience of handling big-ticket, landmark movies like Rajinikanth's 'Narasimha', Kamal Haasan's 'Dasavatharam', among others, he is not exactly in a good form of late. The 2014 movie 'Lingaa' was a flop, with even Rajini's super-stardom not helping it.

Let's hope the Balayya movie will be a comeback of sorts for KS.
