Aditya 369 – A historical, science fiction wonder in Telugu cinema is one of the favorite film of Actor-turned-politician Chiranjeevi. Notably, it was the one and only film of Balayya that was being promoted by Chiru. Saying that it’s is one of the best products ever in Tollywood, he appealed to the parents to show this ‘Time Machine’ flick to their children.

Now, Balakrishna is gearing up to make a sequel to this classic after nearly 21 years. Sources say, legendary filmmaker Singeetham Srinivasa Rao who directed the original will be directing this sequel too. Most probably, maestro Ilayaraja will be roped for the sequel as well.

Balayya played dual role – one as a modern day youth and the other as Sri Krishna Deva Raya. In the original, the lead pair travels from present (1991) to past (Sri Krishna Deva Raya ) and then to future (after the Third World War). It will be interesting to see how the sequel would shape up. The regular shooting of the film will start from August this year.
