Sumanth, grandson of legendary actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao, began shooting for NTR biopic last week. He will be essaying his grandfather’s role in the movie. Sumanth even had a clean shave after many years to look like his grandpa.
In a latest interaction with a popular English daily, Sumanth revealed that his character travels with the main protagonist NTR, played by Balakrishna, for a long time and hence he will be donning multiple looks in the biopic. Explaining why he had to sport a clean shaven look, Sumanth said that his grandfather was rarely seen with a beard on the screen.
Sumanth is quite excited and grateful for getting the opportunity to portray his grandfather on the screen.
