Superstar Mahesh Babu publicly shared his appreciation for the theatrical trailer of Akhil Akkineni’s upcoming film, Lenin.
Taking to social media, Mahesh noted that he thoroughly enjoyed the newly released trailer and praised Akhil’s performance, stating that the actor brought considerable heart and fire to the role and commanding presence to every frame.
The prominent endorsement concludes with Mahesh extending his best wishes to the entire production team for a blockbuster release on July 10.
This public nod serves as a significant promotional boost for the rural action-romance drama as it enters its final stretch of marketing.
Directed by Murali Kishor Abburu and produced jointly by Annapurna Studios and Sithara Entertainments, Lenin marks Akhil Akkineni’s return to the big screen following his 2023 release, Agent.
The trailer establishes a gritty narrative backdrop set in Rayalaseema, focusing on a violent conflict fueled by a central romance between Akhil’s character and the female lead, played by Bhagyashri Borse.
The film’s promotional material has already drawn online discussions for its high action choreography and thematic parallels to epic conflicts. With a firm theatrical release date locked for July 10, the high-profile industry endorsement sets a highly positive tone for the movie’s upcoming box-office opening.
