NTR immediately took to X and shared his excitement upon hearing the news. He posted “Heartiest congratulations to Bala Babai on being honored with the prestigious Padma Bhushan award. This recognition is a testament to your unparalleled contributions to cinema and your relentless public service”. This post secured thousands of likes and reposts as Nandamuri fans are delighted with the Babayi – Abbayi bonding because there have numerous rumours that all is not well between both Balakrishna and NTR.

Balakrishna is the third actor from Tollywood after Akkineni Nageswara Rao and Megastar Chiranjeevi to be bestowed with the Padma Bhushan award.
