Akhil Akkineni, known for facing challenges in establishing a strong foothold at the Box Office since his debut, is now preparing for his next venture. This upcoming film will be directed by Anil Kumar, making his debut in the director’s chair. Anil Kumar has previously worked as an associate director on the movie Saaho, featuring Prabhas. The project is set to be produced by UV Creations, adding anticipation to the collaboration and raising expectations for a fresh and exciting cinematic experience.
The upcoming film marks Akhil Akkineni’s sixth venture, initially slated to commence production in May 2023. However, plans were temporarily put on hold after Akhil’s previous film, “Agent,” faced a setback at the Box Office despite being one of his costliest projects. Rumors circulated that due to the failure of “Agent,” there were considerations to reduce the budget for Akhil’s next project with director Anil Kumar, causing a delay in the official announcement. Contrary to the speculations, UV Creations, the film’s producers, express confidence in the project and are reportedly investing extra effort into crafting the script. The film is expected to have a budget of Rs 100 Crores, making it Akhil’s highest-budgeted film to date.
In the latest developments, it’s reported that Akhil Akkineni’s upcoming project, tentatively titled “Dheera,” is set to delve into the fantasy genre. This film, which is expected to commence filming in February 2024, promises a departure from the norm with a new look for Akhil, adding an element of novelty and anticipation for the audience.
