Only a couple of days back we read that Nani will tie the knot by the end of this year. Now the next eligible bachelor in Tollywood who is set to lose the tag is Allari Naresh. The actor will enter wedlock by next year.

He says, 'Elders in my family have been asking me to give nod to marriage. Finally I have asked them to choose a perfect bride to me. They are on the lookout and hopefully my marriage will take place next year.'

Naresh is having a good run in Tollywood. His films, made in nominal budget, are good at collecting return on investments. Hence he has emerged a bankable hero for small and medium producers, pundits say.

The actor is popular in Kollywood as well. He made his debut there with Kurumbu directed by Vishnuvardhan and was last seen in Poraali with Sasikumar. At present, he is doing a Telugu-Tamil bilingual with Vaibhav and others.
