Arjun Rampal, the acclaimed Bollywood actor known for his powerful performances, is all set to make his debut in Tollywood with Nandamuri Balakrishna‘s much-awaited film, tentatively titled NBK108. Directed by Anil Ravipudi, the film has garnered immense anticipation since its inception, and the addition of Arjun Rampal to the cast has heightened the excitement further.

Alongside Nandamuri Balakrishna and Arjun Rampal, NBK108 features Kajal Aggarwal and Sreeleela as the female leads.
