Balakrishna's stunning take on Srikanth

Family hero Srikanth of late is not getting offers as the lead hero. So he started doing character roles and even negative roles. Srikanth is playing the role of a powerful antagonist in Natasimha Balakrishna's upcoming entertainer Akhanda under the direction of Boyapati Srinu.

Srikanth is hoping that Boyapati will rejuvenate his career with Akhanda the way he rejuvenated Jagapathy Babu's career as an antagonist in Legend. In the meantime, Balakrishna speaking to scribes came with a stunner about Srikanth.

He said 'I told Srikanth not to do antagonist roles now. I told him that he will get offers as the lead actor and even suggested a story. I even referred a director to the story. I asked him to do films as the lead hero and later he can do experiments."

Balakrishna continued ' Srikanth is not related to me in any manner. However, I gave him advice as I wish everyone in the industry to do good and be successful.". It is known that Srikanth played the role of Lakshmana in Balakrishna's Sri Rama Rajyam.
