Hyderabad, August 30 – In a moment of immense pride for Indian cinema, Nandamuri Balakrishna, fondly known as Nata Simham, has been officially included in the Gold Edition of the World Book of Records (WBR), UK. This rare honor celebrates his five-decade-long journey as a leading hero, an achievement that very few actors worldwide can claim.

The World Book of Records, headquartered in London and recognized across the UK, USA, Canada, Switzerland, India, and the UAE, hailed Balakrishna’s contribution as both extraordinary and inspirational. This recognition immortalizes his status as a cultural icon and a torchbearer of Telugu cinema.

Five Decades of Cinematic Brilliance

Balakrishna has carried forward the legendary legacy of his father, Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao (NTR), while crafting his own identity with versatile performances, intense screen presence, and an unwavering commitment to his craft. Over the years, he has taken up diverse roles, experimenting fearlessly while staying rooted in tradition, ensuring his relevance across generations.

Despite facing challenges, his resilience and determination have kept him at the forefront of the industry. His powerful performances have not only won critical acclaim but also made him one of the most beloved stars in Indian cinema.

Accolades & Recognition

The actor has already been honored with the Padma Bhushan, one of India’s highest civilian awards, for his contribution to cinema and society. His recent blockbuster, Bhagavanth Kesari, further elevated his stature, earning a National Award for its cinematic excellence.

In politics, Balakrishna created history by securing a hat-trick victory in Hindupur constituency, where his development initiatives and welfare efforts transformed it into a model constituency.

Leadership Beyond Cinema

Beyond films and politics, Balakrishna has dedicated his life to public service. For over 15 years, he has served as Chairman of the Basavatarakam Indo American Cancer Hospital & Research Institute, leading initiatives in affordable healthcare, cancer treatment, and patient welfare. His humanitarian efforts stand as a testament to his compassion and social responsibility.

World Book of Records Commendation

In his official statement, Santosh Shukla, CEO of the World Book of Records, praised Balakrishna’s cinematic journey as a golden benchmark in Indian film history. He emphasized how Balakrishna embodies both artistic brilliance and humanitarian leadership, inspiring millions around the globe.

A Global Celebration

The inclusion of Balakrishna in the Gold Edition of WBR is not just an award—it is a global celebration of his stature as an actor, leader, and philanthropist. His legacy continues to inspire cinema lovers, political followers, and social activists alike.

Balakrishna will be formally felicitated in Hyderabad on August 30, where this prestigious honor will be officially conferred upon him.
