Nandamuri Balakrishnan is unquestionably a highly experienced actor within the realm of Telugu films. Over the course of numerous years and a vast number of productions, he’s unfortunately been involved in controversy because of certain remarks he’s made.
On June 10th, as our actor turns 65 years old, let’s take another look at one of the surprising comments he made regarding filming specific scenes with actresses on set.
Nandamuri Balakrishna on doing intimate scenes with heroines
As a connoisseur of lifestyle and entertainment, I’ve always believed in offering my audience more than just the typical chase scenes with actresses. At a recent audio launch event for the film Savitri, Nandamuri Balakrishna echoed this sentiment, asserting that his fans crave depth and complexity in his performances.
In a different phrasing: The actor from Akhanda Thandavam noted that audiences find pleasure in scenes where he shares on-screen kisses with actresses or writes scenarios where they become pregnant. Furthermore, he admitted that he sometimes behaves playfully and gently pinches his female co-stars to win over fans.
According to him, if he merely chases after the actresses, his fans might be disillusioned. Instead, they prefer to see him either kissing the character or making it seem like the character is pregnant. He himself can be playful with the actresses… occasionally pinching them.
NBK ended up apologizing for his statements about women
Following his remark at this occasion, Balayya encountered intense backlash from fans, particularly women who vehemently disagreed with his statement. As the situation began to escalate into a debate, the seasoned actor intervened and offered an apology, simultaneously explaining the context of his statement.
In his own words, he expressed, “I hold deep respect for women. My remarks were never intended to offend or single anyone out. Reflecting on my past films, I made those comments.
