Like the prestigious gallantry award, this film would also be made with such a high starndards.’ Balakrishna says, ‘I had a long wait to work with Dr Dasari. Not only me, my fans are also eagerly waiting for it. My dream come true with ‘Paramaveera Chakra’. We are sure that the film would create ripples at the box office and would remain a memorable film in my career.’
Dasari says, ‘It is the late NTR who encouraged me a lot in my early days of career. I am happy for getting a chance to direct him and now his son too. The script is taking shape for the past two years. I am confident that it is Balakrishna who could do complete justice to my subject. That was the reason why I refused to give this script even to Rajanikant. Definitely the film would reach the expectations of the audiences.’
