Nandamuri Balakrishna took part in his birthday celebrations at Basavatarakam Hospital, spending time with doctors and patients. This is a tradition he follows every year.

Speaking at the event, Balakrishna recalled shooting a key sequence for “Akhanda 2” in the snow-covered landscapes of Georgia. Despite the sub-zero temperatures, he claimed the cold had no effect on him.

“The entire unit was bundled up in jackets and layers, shivering, but I completed the shoot without any trouble. I didn’t even wear a shirt, as per my character’s costume — just a shawl. I didn’t feel the chill at all. It was all thanks to the divinity of the character,” Balakrishna said.

Up next, the veteran actor is set to begin work on a new film directed by Gopichand Malineni.
