Macho star Rana Daggubati, who has an interesting line up of films, is likely to play the role of Nara Chandra Babu Naidu in the much anticipated biopic of legendary actor and politician NTR.

Going by the latest reports, Balakrishna and Teja are keen on casting Rana for the crucial role as the latter will be a perfect fit for CBN’s character given that he recently impressed audience with his political outing Nene Raju Nene Mantri which has him playing a demagogue.

CBN played an instrumental role in TDP during NTR’s tenure as Chief Minister and he later took over the charge of the party after the sudden demise of NTR. So, NTR biopic will definitely have ample references of CBN and the makers want to rope in someone who can do complete justice to the role.

Initially, there were reports that seasoned actor Raj Sekhar will play CBN in this film. But, the latest buzz suggests that Rana might step into the shoes of the crucial role.

We have to wait for an official confirmation to get clarity on this buzz.
