Interestingly, the film received mixed to unfavorable feedback from Telugu critics, which sharply contrasts with its reception in its home market. The actor’s market value in the Tollywood Collections has diminished recently, and this film's box office run continued that trend, as it garnered suboptimal numbers in the Telugu-speaking states.
In a noteworthy disclosure, the film's producers revealed that Samyuktha will take on the female lead role, replacing Pragya Jaiswal, who was originally cast. Directed by Boyapati Srinu, the highly anticipated film is set to release on September 25, 2025. Samyuktha is expected to commence filming shortly. Nandamuri Balakrishna is enjoying the success of his newly released film, Daaku Maharaaj, as he prepares for his highly anticipated title, Akhanda 2: Thaandavam. Produced by Raam Achanta and Gopichand Achanta under the 14 Reels Plus banner, Akhanda 2 will feature a music composition by Thaman, heightening the anticipation for this thrilling project.
