Akhil Akkineni faced a significant setback with the disappointing performance of “Agent,” directed by Surender Reddy. Despite the hard work invested in “Agent,” the movie did not live up to the high expectations and resulted in a box office disaster. Recent buzz suggests that Akhil’s upcoming project will be in collaboration with UV Creations. Now, it is speculated that the film will have a budget of over 100 Cr rupees.
Despite the setback with “Agent,” UV Creations is reportedly gearing up to produce a movie with Akhil in the lead role, allocating a substantial budget of Rs. 100 crores. The decision by UV Creations to invest such a significant amount in a film starring Akhil, especially after the commercial failure of “Agent,” is viewed as a bold and risky move.
However, it also signals a level of confidence and belief in Akhil’s potential to bounce back. A new director named Anil Kumar will mark his debut with the project in Telugu cinema. The film is tentatively titled as “Dheera.”
An official announcement of the film is expected to be out soon.
