Akhil Akkineni is all geared to give a strong performance in his next film, directed by Murali Kishor Abburu. The film, now officially titled Lenin, is making rapid strides and the buzz around it is quietly growing.
The first look of Lenin has already caused ripples on the net, setting up Akhil in a tough, mass avatar—suggesting an electric and action-packed plot. With a village setting and high-octane sequences, the movie is expected to bring Akhil in a never-before-seen avatar that can turn around his career.
The excitement has now been compounded with big industry rumors swirling that seasoned actor Nagarjuna Akkineni will be a major character in the film — potentially that of Akhil’s on-screen father. If true, fans will get to long-last see the on-screen pairing of the real life father-son duo. There is an announcement from the makers about Nagarjuna included shortly, which has even helped converge the buzz.
The movie also features Sreeleela as the heroine and adds her charm and energy to weight the grim storyline. Thaman S. is composing the music, whose score is likely to heighten the emotional and action quotient of the narrative.
Both produced by Naga Vamsi and Nagarjuna Akkineni, Lenin is turning out to be an outright action drama with a heartfelt emotional core. With a good cast, energetic storytelling, and the movie is already one of the most widely-discussed ventures in Tollywood.
