Akkineni Akhil, after his disastrous debut 'Akhil`, didn`t sign any project immediately and was in story discussions with Vamshi Paidipally and Kalyan Krishna for some months. A film under Paidipally's direction was to be Akhil`s next (almost), and the story too was said to have been finalised. But there was no official confirmation from the Akkineni family. After Vamshi, there was the name of Koratala Siva on cards, which was to be a remake of a Malayalam film. But that too wasn't confirmed.

While fans of Akhil are eagerly waiting for his next, keeping everyone`s speculations to an end, there is a new name on the cards. It's none other than Andala Rakshasi and Krishna Gadi Veera Prema Gadha fame Hanu Raghavapudi. Our sources suggest that Nagarjuna too heard the story and gave a nod to the movie. Though there is no official confirmation, sources suggest that Hanu is the one who is going to direct Akhil`s next.

If it's not Hanu Ragavapudi, there will be a movie for sure with Koratala Siva, which might go on the floors after Janata Garage has been done. This suggests that Akhil has two back-to-back projects about to roll down.
