Top 10:
Balakrishna Top Ten films.


(1): Mangamma Gaari Manavadu
Banner: Bhargava Arts
Director: Kodi Ramakrishna
Producer: S.Gopal Reddy
Year of the Release: 1984
Box-Office Result: Sensational Hit

This was Balakrishna's first biggest hit movie as a solo hero. Suhaasini paired up with him for this family entertainer. Senior actress Padmasree Bhanumati played an important role called "Mangamma" who was bold and dashing old lady in the village. Introduced as Late sri NTR's son, Balakrishna took almost 4 films to establish himself as an actor who could be a next star in Nandamuri's clan. This film was made based on a Tamil film, set in the village backdrop. "How a good for nothing guy reformed himself into a responsible person in the village" was the basic plot of the film. Kodi Ramakrishna added sufficient ingredients to make the family audience walked straight into theatres. Late Sri KV Mahadevan songs were another asset to the film. This movie created sensation at the box-office and ran for one year. Balakrishna appears as Lord Rama and Krishna in a song. Bhanumati's "Sri Surya Narayana.." song was the best situational song in the film and well shot.

(2): Anasuyamma Gaari Alludu
Banner: RamaKrishna studios
Director: Kodanda RamiReddy
Producer: Nandamuri Jayakrishna
Year of the Release: 1986
Box-Office Result: Super Hit

It was his home production that wanted to test the beaten to death subject "a combat between an arrogant aunt and a decent son in law" with Balakrishna. Balakrishna, that time, was still settling down in the league of big stars of Tollywood. Hero Krishna was at peak in his career being Chiranjeevi as the only rival to him at box-office. Balakrishna was steadily delivering hits and improving on the other aspects where he was lacking in. To win the mass pulse in a massive way, the team had done enough exercise to project Balakrishna as the future hero to be considered serious at the box-office. This film had a very good run and helped to his career. Oorvasi Saarada was chosen to perform the pompous aunt role while Bhanupriya being her lovable daughter and late sri Jaggayya as her fearful husband. Nutan Prasad and Mamata played side kicks to the hero who had equally lengthy roles, help the hero to take the revenge on his aunt. "Long long ago, long long ago, so long ago.." was the popular comedy skit in this film between Nutan Prasad and his son. Songs of the movie were catchy and tuned by late sri Chakravarthy. The villainy played by another great performer late sri Rao Gopalrao (as a distance relative to Anasooyamma) provided magnificent comedy by sharing the screen with another legend in comedy late sri Allu. This movie ran very well at the box-office and this is the first movie ran 100 days in double theatres in twin cities.


(3): Seetha Ramula Kalyanam
Banner: Yuva chitra vaari
Director: Late Sri Jandhyala
Producer: K.Murari
Year of the Release: 1987
Box-Office Result: Hit

1986-87 was claimed as Balakrishna's year at the box-office. He had delivered 5 consecutive hits in this year. "Desoddharakudu", "Anasooyamma gaari Alludu", "KaliyugaKrishnudu", "Seetharamula kalyanam" and 'Apoorva sahodarulu" were the films kept the cash registers ringing. First two films in the list and this film were good hits and strengthen the box-office stamina of this budding actor. Balakrishna, due to various reasons limited to only mass roles though occasionally done few films directed by semi-commercial directors like K.Viswanath and late sri Jandhyala. Yuva chitra has a good reputation among cine goers as they make movies by subject not by hero. Late sri Jandhyala, did fail once with Balayya to deliver a hit in the form of "Babai-Abbay". He had taken a simple love story and blended with village politics this time. As usual, more of a custom to Yuva chitra, KVM had given terrific numbers to gel with the theme of the movie. "Ralla lo isukallo.." still has the pleasantness.

(4): Muddula Mamayya
Banner: Bhargava Arts
Director: Kodi Ramakrishna
Producer: S.Gopal Reddy
Year of the Release: 1989
Box-Office Result: Sensational Hit

This movie was a remake of a Tamil super hit film directed by P.Vasu. There is only one word to express the success of this film "Phenomenal". There were plenty of films in Telugu industry that dealt with brother-sister sentiment. But, only few could leave a great impact. When someone looks at the late NTR's career, "Raktha Sambandham" strikes the chords first in the league of brother-sister sentiment films. Two great all-time performers NTR and Saavithri excelled as brother-sister in this film. There was a talk that people used to cry in theatres when these two characters were separated and cry for each other's love. That was the end-result of that yesteryear's blockbuster. The rightly packed sentiments, emotions and the heroism worked perfect and the film's success was a phenomenal. Kodi Ramakrishna and team might have felt that they could recreate the same magic again with Balayya. Of course, they did it. Balakrishna attained macro mass image with this film. He worked hard for the songs in this film and his dancing moments were the talk of the town that time. This movie dealt with the sister sentiment and Balakrishna, Seetha played the subsequent roles. Music by late sri KVM was a chartbuster. "Mamayya anna pilupu.." song was almost become like a stamp to depict the brother-sister relationship afterwards similarly the song "chandurini minchu" in RakthaSambandham". The mega success of this film had made him the nearest rival to Chiranjeevi at the box-office. This film had broken all the existing state and district wise records with the stupendous run and was a land mark in Balakrishna's career. Kodi Ramakrishna, with this film, proved that he was the director who could bring the best out in Balayya in all aspects (in later stages, B.Gopal took over from him. Only this duo had given maximum hits to Balayya in his career). This movie created records at box-office and ran 100 days in 29 (direct) centers and doubled the previous 100 days record(Slab).

(5): Aadithya 369
Banner: Sridevi Art movies
Director: Singeetham Srinivasarao
Producer: Anitha Prasad
Year of the Release: 1991
Box-Office Result: Average

Being branded as "Hero" for the masses, Balakrishna, after some point of time in his career, wanted to give a try with other directors who has potential to present him in different format. He zeroed in on writer-director Singeetam to direct this film. As a specialist of making films inspired by Hollywood movies, "Back to future" had attracted him to make a movie on the similar lines amidst Balayya in the lead. This was a socio-fantasy film, was cleverly adopted and integrated with Sri Krishna Deva Royala's era as the backdrop. Balakrishna had done the role of SKDR with ease. His diction was proper and able to cope up well between "Pouraanika" and "electronic engineer" character. He should be patted back for not keeping his mass image when doing this film. Hero Tarun had done an important role as a child artiste. Maestro Ilayaraja provided music to this film (apparently, it stands as one of the ever best albums in Balakrishna's entire career). "Jaanavu le..", "Raasaleela vela" numbers were instant hit with all categories of music lovers. Tinu Anand had done the scientist role who invents a time machine that could take you back to the era you wished for. Late sri Amreesh puri pulled it off well as the person who wanted to utilize the power of time machine in the wrong sense and take the full control on the world into his hand. This movie was presented by the great singer SP Balasubramanyam. Yesteryear's singer Jikki had sung the song "Janavule" that was a great recall of this renowned singer. This movie didn't run as expected, but not a loss venture.
