Akhil to be directed by Nani's director

  • IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,July 12 2016]

Akkineni Akhil, after his 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. After Vamshi, there was the name of Koratala Siva on cards, which was to be a remake of a Malayalam film. But neither of the movies was confirmed.

Finally, Akhil has okayed Nani's director to be his next. It's none other than Andala Rakshasi and Krishna Gadi Veera Prema Gadha fame Hanu Raghavapudi. Our sources suggest that Nagarjuna too has liked Hanu's story.

Hanu's third and Akhil's second will be awaited. Official confirmation is expected in some days.
