Veteran actor Dr Rajasekhar is reportedly being considered for a powerful antagonist role in NBK112, the upcoming film bringing Nandamuri Balakrishna and director Koratala Siva together for the first time. The possibility of a confrontation between the two senior actors has added interest to the project, although the makers have not confirmed Rajasekhar’s involvement.

NBK112 was officially launched in Amaravati. Sudhakar Cherukuri and Sudhakar Mikkilineni are producing the film under SLV Cinemas and Yuvasudha Arts. It is expected to be a large-scale commercial entertainer, with detailed story and character information still under wraps.

Rajasekhar Considered for Antagonist Role

The latest industry speculation places Rajasekhar in contention for a significant negative character. Reports suggest the role could provide a strong opponent for Balakrishna, making their potential on-screen clash a central attraction.

Known for films such as Ankusam and Agraham, Rajasekhar has built a reputation for intense performances. His recent appearance in Biker has also brought renewed attention to his screen presence and interest in challenging characters.

However, the casting remains a possibility rather than an official announcement. Neither the production houses nor the director has confirmed whether the actor has signed the film.

Balakrishna and Koratala Siva Join Forces

NBK112 marks the first collaboration between Balakrishna and Koratala Siva. The pairing has drawn attention as audiences await details about the director’s approach to the actor’s character.

The report suggests Koratala is planning a fresh makeover for Balakrishna. No official character look or detailed explanation of that makeover has been disclosed, leaving the film’s presentation open to speculation. With the project launched, upcoming announcements from the team could clarify the principal cast and the direction of the story.

Dual-Role and Mafia Backdrop Reports Surface

Another unconfirmed report suggests Balakrishna may portray two characters, representing a father and son. The proposed storyline is said to combine family emotions with intense action and a possible mafia backdrop.

These details have not been established by the makers. The dual-role claim and the reported setting should therefore be treated as industry speculation until the team releases an official synopsis or character announcement. If confirmed, the father-and-son premise could offer contrasting roles for Balakrishna while connecting the action to a family-centred conflict.

First Shooting Schedule Expected in December

The first shooting schedule is reportedly expected to begin during the opening week of December 2026. An exact commencement date has not been announced in the supplied report.

For now, the key developments are the project’s launch and the reported consideration of Rajasekhar for an antagonist role. Official updates on casting, Balakrishna’s character and the shooting schedule will provide a clearer picture of NBK112 as production approaches.
