Biography

Nandamuri Balakrishna (born June 10, 1960), commonly referred to as "Balayya," is a Telugu cinema superstar, known for Aditya 369 (1991), Legend (2014), and most recently, Daaku Maharaaj (2025). His theatrical performance style and unsubtle fight sequences have become a trademark of him and his films, with the "Balayya" brand becoming its own subgenre of mass cinema.
