Two years after its Telugu release in 2021, co-producers Dr. Jayantilal Gada of Pen Studios and Sajid Qureshi are now bringing audiences the much awaited Hindi version of the action drama ‘Akhanda’, written and directed by Boyapati Srinu.
A true feast for hard-core Balayya fans that weaves a historical story with mass moments, ‘Akhanda’ is high-voltage, whistle-worthy and a true-blue mass entertainer that grossed Rs. 120.8 Crore at the box office.
Starring Nandamuri Balakrishna in the lead dual role alongside Pragya Jaiswal, Jagapathi Babu and Srikanth, ‘Akhanda’ emerged as the second highest-grossing Telugu film of 2021 and the highest-grossing film in Balakrishna’s career. The film which marks the third collaboration between Balakrishna and director Boyapati Srinu, also premiered on OTT last year and had became one of the most watched regional films on the platform.
After much anticipation, the Hindi-market audiences will now get to witness and revisit the high voltage entertainer as ‘Akhanda (Hindi)’ will hit the theatres on January 20, 2023.
Dr. Jayantilal Gada shared, “If the last year has taught us anything it’s that the audience is craving mass entertainers and visual spectacles that merit a theatre viewing. We believe ‘Akhanda’ is a film that will find takers in different language markets and has pan-India appeal considering Nandamuri Balakrishna’s fanbase and the high-octane action and entertainment that the film delivers.”
Presented by Dr. Jayantilal Gada of Pen Studios and produced by Sajid Qureshi, ‘Akhanda (Hindi)’ starring Nandamuri Balakrishna and directed by Boyapati Srinu, will release in cinemas on January 20, 2023.
