Akkineni Akhil, son of veteran actor Akkineni Nagarjuna, made his debut as a lead actor with the film Akhil. However, the film failed to meet expectations, marking a disappointing start for the young actor. Despite subsequent roles in Mr. Majnu, Most Eligible Bachelor, and Agent, none of these films brought the commercial success Akhil had hoped for.
His most recent release, Agent, was a significant box-office failure. Over a year and a half has passed since the film’s release, and Akhil has yet to take on a new project. Despite reviewing several scripts, he had not given the nod to any until recently.
It has now been reported that Akhil has greenlit two new films, both set to go into production early next year. One of the films is Dheera, produced by UV Creations, with Anil making his directorial debut. Additionally, Akhil will also star in a film produced under the Annapurna Studios banner, directed by Murali Kishore Abburu, known for Vinaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha. The makers plan to shoot both films concurrently.
