Following ‘Akhanda’ and ‘Veera Simha Reddy’, ‘Bhagavanth Kesari’, directed by Anil Ravipudi, also received an overwhelming response. Balakrishna has thus scored a hat-trick of hits, each of these films grossing over Rs. 100 crores, highlighting his star power.
Balakrishna’s Remuneration?
There’s talk in the industry that Balakrishna, who has been upping his game with each film, has significantly increased his remuneration post the hat-trick of hits.

With all his future films being directed by star directors, Balakrishna’s future looks promising. Fans of Nandamuri believe it won’t be long before Balakrishna joins the ranks of other top actors in Telugu in terms of high remuneration.
