Balakrishna’s star power
According to North America film distributor Moksha Movies, Akhanda 2 has got off to a blazing start. No sooner had the booking for overseas release and premieres (December 11) opened, the pre-sales tickets for the film were magnificent. Around 7200+ tickets were sold out within six hours from the time of announcement. Trade overseas describe this as a ‘phenomenon’ given Balakrishna’s star power and his earlier track record. Fans too overseas have been waiting for Balayya to unleash his acting chops on the silver screen. The expectations on Akhanda 2 have been sky high after the first instalment became a blockbuster.
Others films postponed
The delay in the release of Akhanda 2 from December 5 to December 12 prompted makers of other films to also push their films. Two small films Mowgli and Psych Siddhartha were forced to postpone their release dates. While Mowgli will hit the screens on December 13 (and not on 12th) Psych Siddhartha will release on January 1, 2026. Many other films too suffered after Akhanda 2 was postponed prompting distributors to revisit their release plans. The fiasco of Akhanda 2 came like an eye-opener for many filmmakers. The encounter reinforced them to make sure that the film is free from all legalities for a smooth release. Although the postponement of its release cost filmmakers dear, they still exude confidence that the devotional action thriller will strike a chord with fans and audiences. Trade is betting big on Balakrishna and director Boyapati Srinu combination.
