Nandamuri Balakrishna, whose 'Veera Simha Reddy' is an unambiguous BO hit, has been doing NBK108. Director Anil Ravipudi and fight master V Venkat already mounted an action sequence last year. The other day, the 'F3' director even revealed that the film is set in Telangana.

The news is that Kajal Aggarwal, who has acted opposite seniors like Chiranjeevi already (in 'Khaidi No. 150'), has been cast as the 'Akhanda' star's heroine. This is a big boost for her career after last year's 'Acharya' setback. Kajal's portions were removed from 'Acharya'. This year, with NBK108, she is going to make a big comeback.

Producers Sahu Garapati and Harish Peddi of Shine Screens are working with 'Dhamaka' heroine Sreeleela, who is playing Balayya's daughter.

The film has music and cinematography by Thaman and C Ram Prasad, respectively. Edited by Tammi Raju, the film will hit the screens in the last quarter of 2023.
