After the blockbuster success of Nandamuri Balakrishna and Boyapati Sreenu’s 2021 action drama Akhanda, anticipation is sky-high for its much-awaited sequel, Akhanda 2. The second installment comes with the tagline Thandavam. The film’s shoot commenced earlier this year at the sacred Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj.
Ahead of Balakrishna’s birthday tomorrow, the makers have dropped a power-packed teaser featuring the protagonist in his signature avatar. The Nandamuri actor roars in this superbly cut teaser, which hints at a full-on, mass-friendly entertainer packaged with all the commercial elements.
Director Boyapati Sreenu, renowned for delivering powerful action entertainers, has again perfectly tapped into Balayya’s unmatched mass appeal. The kind of heroism he showcases on screen is truly a treat to watch. SS Thaman’s electrifying background score further elevates the intensity, while the action sequences are crafted with exceptional impact.
On the whole, the teaser promises to deliver a proper big-screen entertainer that the audiences have been craving for lately. The makers reiterated that the film will hit the big screens on September 25, which makes the clash with Pawan Kalyan’s OG inevitable.
Pragya Jaiswal and Samyukta Menon are the leading ladies, while Aadhi Pinisetty plays the antagonist in this flick. Raam Achanta and Gopinath Achanta are bankrolling Akhanda 2 under the banner of 14 Reels Plus.
