Surender Reddy To Direct Chiru's Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy!
Hyderabad: After a long gap of almost 10 years Megastar Chiranjeevi(61) is coming back with a bang 'KhaidiNo.150'. It is an out and out commercial, mass masala entertainer embedded with a social message.

It is expected that Chiranjeevi will continue his filmy career after his landmark 150th movie also.

Speaking to a media channel Chiru told that he is willing to perform 'Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy' character. He further added that Director Surender Reddy is the best choice to direct that movie. Chiru told that he informed that same with Surender Reddy also.

Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy was a polygar of Koilakuntla(located in present day Kurnool Dist). He was the 1st revolt in India against the mighty British in 1847, 10 years before the 1857's revolt.

Narasimha Reddy commanded 66 villages in Cuddapah, Bellary, Anantapur and Kurnool districts with an army of 2000. He refused to share revenue to British. On July 23, 1846 he attacked British army at Giddaluru and defeated them.

Due to informers cheating, British successfully trapped Narasimha Reddy and humiliated him severly, tied with heavy chains and paraded him in the streets of Koilkuntla with bleeding colthes.

In order to frighten the other freedom fighters, Narasimha Reddy's head was kept hanging to the Koilakuntla fort for about 30 yrs(1847 to 1877) after his death.
