Only Balayya garu is such a hero: Nara Lokesh

Speaking at the audio release function of 'Jai Simha', AP Minister and TDP leader Nara Lokesh hailed Balakrishna to the skies.

"There are many heroes in Telugu cinema.  But if there is one hero who speaks his mind frankly, it's Balayya garu alone.  Every hero would have fans.  But if there is one hero whose fans will go to the extent of giving up their life for the sake of their hero, it's Balayya garu alone," Lokesh said.

"It was in 1955 that 'Swargeeya' Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao garu did a movie titled 'Jai Simha'.  It was a massive hit.  Balayya garu is going to rewrite that history after all the decades," the 'Alludu' thundered.

"Meesam thippina, thoda kottina, it's only one hero who does it the best.  It's Balayya garu.  He has created history with films like 'Samarasimha Reddy', 'Narasimha Naidu', 'Simha', 'Legend' and 'Gautamiputra Satakarni'.  I wonder where he gets his energy from.  I have been seeing him for many years now.  He is going to rewrite history with his next film," the speaker added.

Lokesh also praised the politician Balayya in no small measure.  "As the MLA of Hindupur, he calls me up daily asking as to why I don't visit his constituency.  If there is one legislator whose heart always beats for his people, it's Balayya garu.  He has done a lot for the poor regarding the treatment of cancer.  After bifurcation, he has been making efforts to open a cancer hospital in Amaravathi, too," the son of AP CM said.
