Is Nandamuri Balakrishna going to essay an unlikely role in his next movie, to be directed by Boyapati Srinu? Is he playing an aghora for a brief part in the mass entertainer? If some unverified media reports are to be believed, the answer is a big yes.

A Telugu daily has speculated that the 'Ruler' actor will be seen in two roles or a role with two shades in the yet-to-be-shot entertainer. And one of them will be power-packed. The other one will come with a sense of mystique, which is the avatar of aghora.

The big-ticket flick, to be produced by Miriyala Ravinder Reddy, will have music by SS Thaman. The buzz is that it will be shot from mid-February and will be released in the second part of the year. Since Balayya's films haven't been going strong at the box-office, the producer has decided to release it when there is no competition.
