Akhanda 2 is currently shooting at full speed. There’s no issue with the filming itself, but the atmosphere on set feels tense — like sitting near a volcano, unsure when it might erupt.
Industry talk suggests an ego clash brewing between Balakrishna and director Boyapati. Rumors say this tension has been present since the project's start.
Boyapati might feel he was instrumental in Balayya’s success with Simha, Legend, and Akhanda. But Balayya is no longer the same — he’s now delivering back-to-back hits.
Insiders whisper about a communication gap between the two. It’s said that Balayya raised his voice once or twice, but despite this, work continues without disruption.
Boyapati recently had a special weapon crafted for the movie—a fancy mace with a trident atop it. Known for creating unique weapons for his films, Boyapati explained its look when Balayya, well-versed in mythology, questioned it.
Both are performing professionally, but the crew works under constant tension, bracing for any sudden storm.
