Akhil Akkineni’s career has been going through a rough phase, where things just do not seem to fall into place for him, no matter how much he tries. From the very beginning, since his debut Akhil, his journey has had its share of setbacks.
Trying to reset things after Agent’s disastrous result, Akhil took a break and then started working on Lenin, produced by Naga Vamsi and directed by Murali Kishore Abburu. Bhagyashri Borse plays the female lead. But even this project has not had a smooth journey.
The film was first planned for a March end release, then pushed to May 1 due to Ram Charan’s Peddi. When Peddi moved to April 30, Lenin got postponed again, now aiming for June 26. Now even that release date might not be the final one.
Meanwhile, director Maruthi is reportedly in talks with Akhil, and they have already had a few discussions. However, nothing has been finalized yet.
Fans feel that any sensible hero would stay away from a director like Maruthi after delivering a film like Raja Saab. Because of that result, even his name now brings negativity, trolling, and zero excitement.
This is why Akhil Akkineni fans are worried. With reports suggesting Maruthi might direct Akhil’s next film, there is clear panic among them. They believe Akhil, who is at a very crucial stage in his career, cannot afford to take such risks. According to fans, he should stay away from directors they see as outdated or lacking strong vision.
At the same time, Maruthi is said to be aware of the situation and is determined to make a strong comeback.
Akhil has already faced challenges in choosing the right scripts and directors, with only a few films working in his favor. In that context, fans feel that teaming up with Maruthi at this stage could be a risky move rather than a safe one.
Akhil reportedly is in discussions with multiple directors and is looking for the strongest script before making his next move. Right now, nothing is confirmed with Maruthi. But one thing is very clear. Akhil Akkineni is at a make-or-break stage in his career, and his next decision could decide where he goes from here.
