Director Krish prefers emotional storytelling to visual grandeur which is the commendable aspect of the film.

Now the writing department of GPSK (with due lead credits to Krish, Burra Sai Madhav) smartly identifies the potential cinematic notches in the history and knits a gripping screenplay. Much against to the hype, Gautami Bala’s prominence was limited to Hema Malini’s presence that gave the weight the role needed.īesides the trio Kabir Bedi as King Nahapana and the foreign cast playing the Greek Kings and Ethena deliver stellar performances. Hema Malini: Without ‘Gautami Bala’ there is no Satakarni and vice versa too. Shriya brought the much needed beauty and balance to the script amidst the supremacy of Satakarni and Balayya. Shriya Saran: She was equally magnificent as Vasishti Devi, the better half of Satakarni. Nandamuri Balakrishna: Just like how Lord Krishna/Rama is (late) NTR for us, Balakrishna is SATAKARNI! With an unmatched panache, vigor and performance Balayya is Satakarni come alive.

How did Satakarni triumph over fears, challenges, conspiracies, and define the fortune of the Telugus forms the crux of the story. A last war awaits the legendary emperor that is going to etch history that lasts forever. But both “Gautamiputra” Satakarni and the Greeks are restless. Emperor Satakarni’s brigade forges ahead to the Northern territory conquering various challenges to establish the unprecedented Satavahana era. Satavahana King Satakarni dreams to bring the entire Indian land mass under one roof. Tagline: A MUST WATCH tale of Telugu Pride - an Epic Emotional Feast!
