Nayanthara rules Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam films. Nayan has acted with almost all leading stars in Tamil and Telugu and is the most preferred actress in both Kollywood and Tollywood. Nayan has, now, reportedly bagged the lead heroine role in veteran Tollywood hero Nandamuri Balakrishna aka Balayya's landmark 100th film. The film will be directed by Krish of 'Vanam' fame and his recent film 'Kanche' has received very good reviews. Balayya's 100th film will have a historical subject based on the life of Gauthamiputhra Satakarni, the greatest ruler among Satavahana Kings. This will be Nayanthara's second film with Balakrishna. The first time they teamed up was for the mythological film 'Sri Rama Rajyam' based on the great Indian epic Ramayana.
