Akhil Akkineni’s last film, Most Eligible Bachelor was a decent outing but was not that kind of a hit which Akhil is expecting. So, he has now pinned all his hopes on his new film Agent which has been made on a whopping budget of 60 crores and the most expensive film of Akhil’s career.
The makers announced that the film will be released on the eve of Sankranthi 2023 in January. The team have taken a very bold move which can land him costly, as biggies like Waltair Veerayya and Veera Simha Reddy.
The talk is that even if the film gets a blockbuster talk, it cannot collect 70 crores at the box office due to the presence of other biggies. So, they feel that Agent should have a solo release which will help the film in a big way.
Surender Reddy has directed this film and his philosophy is that Sankranthi is the season where some big films come and make merry. So, if they get a good talk, their film can go all out. But others think it a risky move and only time will tell whether the risky move pays off or not.
