Kajal Aggarwal to replace Nayanthara in Nandamuri Balakrishna’s NBK111?
According to a report in Gulte, Kajal Aggarwal is being considered to replace Nayanthara in the upcoming Nandamuri Balakrishna starrer NBK111. Reportedly, Nayanthara’s dates do not align with the schedule, and there are also rumors of issues in remuneration discussions.
