“If the last year has taught us anything it’s that the audience is craving mass entertainers and visual spectacles that merit a theatre viewing. We believe ‘Akhanda’ is a film that will find takers in different language markets and has Pan-India appeal considering Nandamuri Balakrishna’s fanbase and the high-octane action and entertainment that the film delivers,” stated Dr. Jayantilal Gada of Pen Studios.

The success of Akhanda got here as a much-needed break for the Telugu movie trade because it was making an attempt to get again on its toes after being battered by two-year pandemic restrictions.

The Hindi model of Akhanda will open in cinemas on January 20. Besides Nandamuri Balakrishna, the movie additionally stars Pragya Jaiswal, Jagapathi Babu, and Srikanth.

In Akhanda, Balakrishna performed a double position. And considered one of them is an Aghori who has received a style for violence. The titular character Akhanda by no means hesitates to kill individuals who offend his code of justice.

Akhanda was additionally screened on the final version of the International Film Festival of India within the Indian Panorama mainstream part. When the movie was launched in Telugu, it obtained mixed reviews. “While Boyapati talks about some real issues in the movie, like unchecked mining, irresponsible disposal of chemical waste, fake godmen, and meaninglessness of violence, it is all grandstanding. It may look like the film is pro-progress and pro-rationality, but his characters’ actions are anything but,” wrote Indianexpress.com’s Manoj Kumar R.
