The central government recently conferred Nandamuri Balakrishna with the Padma Bhushan. Balayya’s sister, Nara Bhuvaneswari, wife of AP CM Chandrababu Naidu, held an event yesterday to celebrate her brother’s significant achievement. The event was also graced by Anil Ravipudi, Gopichand Malineni, and Bobby, the directors who recently worked with God of Masses.

Anil Ravipudi had an “F2” moment at this special event, and the director’s words about his experience had Balakrishna, Chandra Babu Naidu, and Bhuvaneswari in splits. The successful director said, “Chandra Babu Naidu Garu, I noticed three wonders today. Firstly, Nara Lokesh Garu said he prefers the food cooked by his mother to his wife. Lokesh Garu indeed has a daring nature to give that statement.”

Anil Ravipudi continued, “When Balayya Garu was asked to propose in the presence of Vasundharamma Garu (Balakrishna’s better half), he asked whom he should propose. The third one took me by a huge surprise. Even after being the CM of a state, CBN Garu paid heed to his wife’s words and completed the speech in just five minutes. These incidents made me realize that Bobby and I were in a safe position today as our wives didn’t accompany us to this event.”

“Had our wives attended this event, many shocking things would have happened. To date, we have only witnessed the acting prowess of Nandamuri heroes, but this is the first time we got to see the timing of Nandamuri women,” remarked Anil Ravipudi.
