Nandamuri Balakrishna is back with a bang with his recent outing Akhanda. The film is directed by Boyapati Sreenu and this happens to be their collaboration after Simha and Legend. The movie released on December 2nd and the response has been unanimous. Akhanda is the biggest hit in the career of Balakrishna and the film also turned out to be a breather for Telugu cinema. Akhanda completed 50 days in 103 centres which is a rare feat in these days. Akhanda's theatrical rights are valued at 56 crores and the film collected a theatrical share of Rs 69.40 crores in its final run across the globe.
Akhanda is also a smashing hit in USA and it crossed 1 million USD mark in USA. The film featured Pragya Jaiswal and Poorna as the heroines and Srikanth played the role of the lead antagonist. Thaman's background score is a huge asset for the film and Miryala Ravindar Reddy is the producer. Akhanda brought enough boost for the career of Balayya who is shattered with back to back debacles.
