Jisshu Sengupta is all set for his debut in Telugu cinema. He will play renowned producer-director
LV Prasad
in the biopic of legendary actor-director Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao, best known as
NTR. Radha Krishna Jagarlamudi
aka Krish has donned the director’s hat for this much-anticipated biopic.
Nandamuri Balakrishna is set to essay out NTR’s role, while Vidya Balan will be seen as his first wife Basava Tarakam. Rana Daggubati will play NTR’s son-in-law N Chandrababu Naidu.
An elated Jisshu says it’s an honour to portray such a renowned film personality like LV Prasad. “It’s a big honour for me to play LV Prasad. The music of his films is still popular. As an actor and director, he used to choose exciting stories which are filled with a lot of emotions and at the same time dramatic. This is the first time I am acting in a South Indian cinema. I am so happy to grab this opportunity but at the same time, a bit tense. Krish has sent me the all the details about my character. Right now I am working on it.”
The NTR biopic is Jishu’s second outing with director Krish. He has already finished his shooting part in ‘
Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi
’ where Jisshu will be seen as Rani Laxmibai’s husband Gangadhar Rao.
