Rumour: Rift between Balayya and Nagarjuna?

Absence of Nandamuri Balakrishna at the homage paying day to legendary Akkineni Nageswara Rao is still a hot subject in tinsel town. Except our mass hero, many of his family members are present to pay last respects to ANR. What might have made Balayya absent?


Both on first day and on funeral day, Balayya was not seen anywhere near Annapurna Studios where ANR was laid to rest finally. Though Balayya's wife Vasundara and son-in-law Lokesh attended the scene, it is really surprising that the Nandamuri hero failed to appear in person. Some say that he is quite sentimental as his daughter got married recently and only after one year he could visit a dead body. In that case, even his wife was also not supposed to attend. Few felt that Balayya was not in town on that day. But he could attend the funeral day at least, and no place in India is located in such remote now. All these loose ends are pointing fingers towards rumours like rift between Balayya and Nagarjuna.


During Balayya's second daughter's wedding recently, Nagarjuna has given a miss and so Balayya is reciprocating this way, say some. But death is the one where people should keep their egos in refrigerators and visit the body to pay homage. We wonder, what Balayya has to say about this!
