The audio release date of 'Gautamiputra Satakarni' has been confirmed to be Dec 16. To be held on a grand scale in Tirupathi, it will see the AP CM N Chandrababu Naidu and Union Minister Venkaiah Naidu as the chief guests.

Krish and team have been able to complete the shoot at a break-neck speed in difficult locations across countries like Morocco, India (read Hyderabad and places in Madhya Pradesh) and Georgia.

As Balakrishna is a devotional person, he has chosen this temple town for his landmark film.

The magnum opus, directed by Krish and starring the Nandamuri actor as the Satavahana Emperor Gautamiputra, will be out on Jan 12, 2017, clashing with Megastar Chiranjeevi's 'Khaidi No. 150' in the same week.
