By TeluguFunda / March 4, 2026

Manchu Manoj is in advanced talks to play a crucial role in Nandamuri Balakrishna’s NBK111, directed by Gopichand Malineni. The film launches regular shooting on March 5, 2026, in Hyderabad, marking a high-stakes mass entertainer.

Reports indicate Manoj has been approached for a powerful negative character, with a recent narration sparking strong interest. This would reunite him with Balakrishna after their 2012 collaboration in Uu Kodathara Ulikki Padathara?, where Balayya supported Manoj’s ambitious project.

Producer Venkata Satish Kilaru, known for Ram Charan’s Peddi, backs the venture with Nayanthara as the female lead and Thaman composing the score. The versatile actor’s bond with Balakrishna reportedly led to quick greenlight considerations.

Production and Release Plans

Pre-production is complete, with Balakrishna gearing up for an intense mass avatar. The team aims to wrap shooting swiftly for a Dasara 2026 release, leveraging Manoj’s entry to heighten box-office expectations.

Social media buzz amplifies anticipation, positioning NBK111 as a sensational crowd-pleaser if the casting confirms.
