In the Telugu Film Industry, sentiment and track records play a crucial role in determining a movie’s success. When two heroes clash at the box office, the one with the upper hand is closely watched until the other reverses the record.
Nandamuri Balakrishna is a bigger star than Ravi Teja, but whenever they’ve clashed in the past, Ravi Teja has emerged victorious. This year, they’re set to clash again during Dussehra.

In 2008 Sankranthi, Balakrishna’s much-hyped Okka Magadu clashed with Ravi Teja’s Krishna. Okka Magadu turned out to be a huge disaster while Krishna became a huge hit.
In 2009, Balakrishna’s Mitrudu and Ravi Teja’s Kick clashed, with Mitrudu failing and Kick becoming Ravi Teja’s career’s biggest hit.

Their third clash was in 2011 during Sankranthi, with Parama Vera Chakra and Mirapakaya where PVC was a washout, and Mirapakaya was a big success. Ravi Teja has won all three clashes so far.
Now all eyes are on the upcoming clash between Ravi Teja’s Tiger Nageswara Rao and Balakrishna’s Bhagavanth Kesari during the Dussehra festive season.

Going by the trailers, both movies look promising and well-made. Tiger Nageswara Rao looks technically good with grandeur, scale, and vision, whereas Bhagvanth Kesari seems to be the perfect festival entertainer with a lot of emotions, action, sentiment, and rabble-rousing dialogues.
The audience is kicked up to watch both films and the clash has only helped in hiking the hype more. Right now the clash looks pretty balanced and there is a chance that both movies can turn out to be successful.
Though Nandamuri fans would be hoping that Bhagavanth Kesari turns out to be a bigger success and Balayya takes some kind of revenge on Ravi Teja for defeating NBK thrice.
