The passing away of Nandamuri Harikrishna has saddened the Nandamuris. Balakrishna, the departed personality's younger brother, was there when the mortal remains were placed at Harikrishna's Hyderabad residence for celebs to pay last respects on Wednesday and Thursday.

Yesterday, someone caught the 'Legend' actor having a chat with Jr NTR and Kalyan Ram over lunch.  This has been seen by many as a sign of strengthening ties between the Balayya-NTR duo.  It has been believed for long that, for some unknown reasons, the senior actor doesn't have good relations with the 'Aravindha Sametha' actor.

It may be recalled that, during one of the promotional interviews of 'Nannaku Prematho', Jagapathi Babu shared a conversation he had with NTR about his alleged tempestuous relations with Balayya.  NTR, said Jagapathi, never had ill-will towards Balayya.
