Akhil Akkineni’s career has yet to truly take off, with most of his recent films underperforming at the box office.
The disappointing outcome of his last film, Agent, left him disheartened and led to a one-and-a-half-year hiatus.
After this extended break, Akhil signed a new project titled Lenin. However, like some of his earlier films, this one also encountered setbacks.
The original female lead, Sreeleela, exited the project after shooting for just a week or two.
Following her departure, the makers brought in Bhagyashri Borse as the new heroine.
Consequently, all previously shot scenes with Sreeleela now need to be reshot with Bhagyashri alongside Akhil.
Akhil is now resuming work on Lenin, a rural drama set in the Chittoor region, which is being filmed from scratch.
