Postponement brings advantage to Akhanda 2!

 Akhanda 2 is finally set to release on December 12 after overcoming all the problems. Both Telugu state governments have approved special ticket price increases, and bookings started with a strong response in Telugu states. The film is also doing well with early sales in the USA. This is a big change from when it was originally planned to release on December 5.

When the movie was scheduled for December 5, there wasn’t much attention or advance bookings, even though it was the fourth time Nandamuri Balakrishna and Boyapati Sreenu were working together.

 The film didn’t get the expected increase in bookings before release. But after the delay due to a legal issue and financial problems, the news became a big topic. For the last week, fans and movie lovers were closely following every update about the new release date, which made the film more popular than before.

When bookings opened on December 12, the demand was much higher than it was for the earlier date.

 The delay was not great for the film’s makers, but it helped build more interest and excitement among the audience, which turned out to be a good thing for the film.

As of Thursday morning, with 12 hours left before the premiere, USA early show sales are at 250,000 dollars, and Hyderabad has already made about 3 crores in sales on the first day.

 Bookings for the premiere are still open, and the numbers are expected to go up even more.

Akhanda 2 Thaandavam stars Nandamuri Balakrishna, Samyukta Menon, and Aadi Pinisetty.

 The film is written and directed by Boyapati Sreenu, produced by Raam Achanta and Gopi Achanta under 14 Reels Plus, and presented by M Tejaswini Nandamuri. The music is composed by Thaman S.

Hero in Jail, Yet Fans Celebrate Movie ‘Release’ Grandly

 Kannada film star Darshan Thoogudeepa, also known as D Boss, is set to release a new movie called The Devil. The film is planned to hit the big screens on December 12th. Before the official release, there is a lot of excitement at the theaters where the movie will be shown.

The film's pre-release events were held in a big way.

 This movie marks Darshan's return to the movie business after his previous film Kaatera. What's surprising is that fans are really excited about the movie's release even though their favorite star is currently in jail. Everyone knows that Darshan is facing legal issues, but his fans are very happy and supportive.

The Devil has also received a lot of support from other popular actors in the Kannada film industry.

 Big names like Shiva Raj kumar and Rishab Shetty have wished the team much success. The positive support and blessings from these big names make the film even more promising.

Many people on social media are surprised to see how fans of a hero who has been accused of a murder involving one of his co-stars and is in jail, are so excited about his movie release.

 Even during the incident, many fans did not criticize Darshan.

The movie is directed by Prakash Veer and features Rachana Rai, Mahesh Manjrekar, and Achyuth Kumar, and is expected to deliver a thrilling and dramatic experience.

These Traits Are Bedrock Of Chiru’s Success: Mahindra

 Mahindra Group's Chairman, Anand Mahindra, shared some important highlights from his visit to Hyderabad. He spoke at the Telangana Rising Global Summit and had a meeting with the Chief Minister, Revanth Reddy.

Mahindra mentioned that his trip had a nice and unexpected surprise – he was finally able to meet Megastar Chiranjeevi.

He wrote: "I was in Hyderabad yesterday to speak at the Telangana Rising Global Summit.

 Apart from the honor of talking with Chief Minister Revanth Reddy Garu about the Vision 2047 plan for the state, it was a pleasant surprise to finally meet Megastar Chiranjeevi Garu.

This man is a legend, but what truly makes him special are his humility and genuine curiosity.

 It reminded me that these two qualities – the desire to learn and the willingness to listen – are the foundation of long-term success in any field, whether it's film, business, or policymaking."

Besides these traits, Chiranjeevi's journey shows hard work, discipline, a down-to-earth attitude, and a strong sense of dedication.

 These qualities have helped him become a true megastar.

His long career, his contributions to charity, and his ability to connect with people of all ages continue to inspire millions.

I Don’t Know: Is Karthi Frustrated About Kaithi 2’s Progress?

Kaithi came out in 2019 with Karthi as the main actor and Lokesh Kanagaraj as the director. The movie was very successful and helped Lokesh build his career. The ending of the film hinted that there might be a sequel, and fans have been waiting for it ever since.

But Lokesh has been working on other big projects.

 He made films with Vijay, Kamal Haasan, and Rajinikanth, and also started the Lokesh Kanagaraj Cinematic Universe, which began with Kaithi. Some news earlier suggested that he would begin Kaithi 2 after finishing Coolie, but even after that, there's no news yet.

Recently, Lokesh's name was connected with a multistarrer film featuring Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan, but that might now be going to Nelson.

 Aamir Khan also said he is in contact with Lokesh and might work with him. New reports suggest Lokesh could make a film with Allu Arjun after Allu finishes his project with Atlee. Still, nothing is certain about Kaithi 2.

On the other hand, Karthi is working on his own film projects.

 After his movie Meiyazhagan, which was released as Sathyam Sundaram in Telugu, he is now ready with Vaa Vaathiyar, which will come out in Telugu as Annagaru Vostaru on December 12. He has been promoting the film in Tamil Nadu and Telugu states.

During a media event in Hyderabad on Wednesday, Karthi talked about his experience on Annagaru Vostaru.

 When asked about Kaithi 2, he said he had no updates and didn’t know when it would happen. Earlier, he had said the sequel would come soon. His latest response has made many people wonder if he is upset about the slow progress.

Karthi’s upcoming films include Sardar 2, which has already been shot, then Marshal, and later HIT 4 with director Sailesh Kolanu.

 For now, even the main actor is waiting for news about Kaithi 2.

Akhanda Thaandavam: Now It’s All Up to the Boyapati–Balayya Combo

Nandamuri Balakrishna's highly anticipated sequel to his blockbuster Akhanda was delayed at the last minute just before its original release date on December 5th due to financial problems and legal issues.

 This unexpected delay has become a hot topic in Tollywood.

After overcoming all the challenges, the makers have now officially confirmed that Akhanda 2 will be released on December 12th.

 Even though the film didn't open last Friday and there was uncertainty about the release date until now, it still has a lot of excitement among the audience.

The controversy and confusion about the release date have actually made more people talk about the film in the last few days.

 Even those who don't usually get excited about movies have shown support for the film and are hoping that the legal and financial issues get resolved quickly.

Although the film is now a week later than originally planned, the opening is expected to be very strong because of the popularity of the Balakrishna–Boyapati Srinu combination.

 If the film gets good reviews, it has a strong chance of making a big impact at the box office in Telugu states.

The Bollywood film Dhurandhar is doing well with its Hindi version even in Telugu states, especially since Akhanda 2 was postponed.

 So, Akhanda 2 might affect Dhurandhar's strong performance if the Balayya–Boyapati combo gets positive reviews, which could lead to more showtimes.

Also, it has a good chance of doing well in the North region because of its genre and the high level of expectation from Hindi audiences, especially if the Sanatana Dharma element resonates with them.

After Rajini and Suriya, Karthi In Talks WIth Vivek Athreya?

Vivek Athreya had a big success with the movie Saripodha Sanivaram. People are curious about what Vivek will do next. But Vivek hasn’t given much information yet. It seems like Karthi might be the main choice to work with Vivek. During the Annagaru Ostaru event, Karthi mentioned this.

He said, "Vivek, we met recently.

 I look forward to meeting again." Vivek was there at the event.

Earlier, there were rumors that Vivek was talking to Rajinikanth.

 Then, it was said he might be working with Suriya. But now, Karthi is showing interest in working with Vivek Athreya.

Vivek is a smart filmmaker who knows how to handle humor, which is one of Karthi’s strong points.

 Vivek has already given Karthi a script, and they are still talking. They are expected to finalize the project after a couple more meetings.

Karthi’s movie Annagaru Ostaru is set to release on December 12, 2025.

Silence on Akhanda 2 Release Date Troubles Small Movies

 On December 5, Akhanda 2 was scheduled for release. At the last minute, the team decided to postpone it and promised to announce a new date shortly. There has not been any news since. For a number of short films scheduled for December, this gap has caused confusion.

Two dates are apparently being considered by the team: December 12 and December 25. The earliest choice, December 12, is thought to help the movie capitalize on its present excitement. A holiday weekend on December 25 could increase box office receipts.

The problem is straightforward. Small films reserved these dates for their own openings because no large releases had been scheduled earlier. On December 12, movies like Mowgli, Psych Siddhartha, and Eesha are slated. With just a few days remaining, these producers are uncertain about carrying on with promotions due to the Akhanda 2 team's lack of clarity. Their resources and efforts might be squandered if the huge movie comes out on the same day, so they would have to start over.

Actor Bandi Saroj from Mowgli, who portrays the adversary in the movie, publicly chastised 14 Reels Plus for the wait. He asked the team to disclose the release date, saying that producers, fans, and distributors are being impacted by the silence.

Conversely, 14 Reels Plus is handling legal matters related to the movie's premiere. The decision has been delayed as a result. 

According to rumors, December 12 is currently the most likely date. If Akhanda 2 is released that weekend, smaller movies will have to choose whether to proceed or back off.
