One of his latest outstanding performances is seen in Gopichand Malineni’s 'Veera Simha Reddy'. However, Balakrishna got massive flak for being 'disrespectful' towards the late legendary actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao. During the success bash of 'Veera Simha Reddy', Balayya made some disrespectful comments towards late legendary actors Akkineni Nageswara Rao and SV Ranga Rao. A video has been going viral wherein Blayya refers to the late Akkineni Nageswara Rao, saying, 'Akkineni.. Thokkineni' went viral on social media. Netizens are not liking the behaviour of Balayya towards Nageswara Rao and SV Ranga Rao. They found it disrespectful.





And now, Akkineni Naga Chaitanya and Akhil addressed Balakrishna over disrespectful comments about their grandfather Akkineni Nageswara Rao. They both jointly released a statement that read, "Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao garu, Akkineni Nageswara Rao garu and S.V Ranga Rao garu's creative contributions have been the pride and pillars of Telugu Cinema. Disrespecting them is degrading ourselves."
