Tollywood is buzzing with fresh speculation as Nandamuri Balakrishna is reportedly in talks for an intriguing new collaboration. According to industry sources, Balakrishna may soon hear a script from director Vassishta, with discussions hinting at a potential Sankranthi 2027 release. The project is said to be backed by noted producer Dil Raju under the prestigious Sri Venkateswara Creations banner.
Insiders suggest that a formal script narration could take place within the next few days. If Balakrishna is impressed and gives his approval, the makers are reportedly planning a grand announcement on his birthday in June. Such a launch would add significant buzz and position the film as one of the major festive contenders for Sankranthi 2027.
Earlier reports indicated that Balakrishna might collaborate with Harish Shankar for a Sankranthi 2027 release under the Sithara banner. With multiple projects being discussed simultaneously, it remains unclear which combination will ultimately materialize. Fans are closely watching developments, as NBK’s festive releases traditionally create massive box-office impact.
The potential NBK–Vassishta project comes amid ongoing uncertainty around other big-ticket films. Bhimbisara 2 is still facing dilemmas even after Vassishta stepped away and a new director was brought in. At the same time, Chiranjeevi’s Vishwambhara continues to be delayed, with no confirmed release date announced so far.
If Balakrishna chooses to team up with Vassishta, it would certainly come as a surprise to many in the industry. However, locking in a Sankranthi 2027 release may not be easy. Vassishta is known for crafting films on a grand scale and taking his time to perfect his vision, which could impact production timelines. For now, all eyes are on the upcoming narration. If the script clicks, Tollywood may witness an unexpected yet exciting combination aiming for one of the biggest festive slots in Telugu cinema.
The upcoming horror thriller Amaravathiki Aahwanam continues to gain momentum as the team successfully wraps up its extensive Madhya Pradesh schedule. The film, directed by GVK and produced under the Light House Cine Magic banner by KS Shankar Rao and R Venkateswara Rao, is already drawing attention for its eerie premise, suspenseful narrative, and technically ambitious execution.
