Exactly two weeks from now, on December 5th, Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Akhanda 2 will hit the screens, and the promotional campaign is already in full swing.
The film’s theatrical trailer was unveiled today in Bangalore, in the presence of Kannada superstar Shiva Rajkumar.
Indians believe that whenever a crisis arises, divinity manifests to restore balance. But in this story, the enemies are determined to destroy that very faith. They aim to crush Sanatana Haindava Dharma across the nation.
Rising against these forces- both within the country and beyond the borders- the protagonist storms in with unbridled fury.
This time, director Boyapati Sreenu appears to have opted for a grander narrative, blending patriotic themes with his signature devotional intensity.
The balance between both elements is striking, and the Kumbh Mela sequence stands out as a visual and emotional high point.
Balakrishna dons two distinct characters, excelling in both. Yet, it is his Akhanda avatar that commands the spotlight. His commanding body language, riveting screen presence, and thunderous dialogue delivery elevate the character to another level.
Aadhi Pinisetty looks menacing as the antagonist. Samyuktha plays the leading lady, while the trailer also offers a glimpse of Harshali Malhotra’s character.
Cinematographers C Ramprasad and Santoshh D Detakae deliver a grand visual canvas with their exceptional camera work, creating a larger-than-life experience.
Composer S Thaman once again injects raw energy into the visuals with his pulsating background score.
Produced by Raam Achanta and Gopi Achanta, and presented by M. Tejaswini Nandamuri, the production values of 14 Reels Plus look rock solid, evident in every single frame.
