Akhanda 2 may finally get its new release date today as the court hearing concludes; makers aim for a December 12 theatrical launch after resolving disputes.
Makers set to announce Akhanda 2 release date as court hearing nears completion; film likely to hit theatres this week.
Today's the day when all the excitement and suspense regarding the release date of Akhanda 2 might just be over. There is a lot of talk in the industry that the filmmakers are going to reveal a new date for the release on December 9, and meanwhile, fans are anxiously waiting for the verdict of the Madras High Court which is today.
Possible Breakthrough for Balakrishna Fans
According to industry sources, Nandamuri Balakrishna’s fans may receive good news as early as today. Strong reports indicate that the makers of Akhanda 2 are ready to resolve the uncertainty around the film’s release, following crucial discussions with Eros International. These talks are believed to have concluded successfully on Monday night.
Makers Clear Final Hurdles
Akhanda 2, the sequel to the blockbuster Akhanda, once again features Balakrishna in a powerful avatar, as evident from the teaser and trailer. The film’s release was postponed due to pending issues, but sources say the production house, 14 Reels Plus, has now addressed all obstacles.
Settlement With Eros International
The dispute between 14 Reels Plus and Eros International had led to the Madras High Court imposing a stay on the film’s release, stemming from pending dues amounting to ₹28 crore. With last-night discussions reportedly ending on a positive note, the makers are expected to inform the court today that the matter has been resolved — potentially paving the way for the film’s clearance.
Release Likely This Week
Fans have been demanding a December 12 release, a date that has been trending heavily on social media platform X. Film sources claim that the makers are also leaning towards a December 12 release, with premiere shows planned for December 11, subject to court approval.
An official announcement is expected later this evening after the court hearing. If all goes well, Akhanda 2 may hit theatres within this week, ending days of speculation.
Earlier Postponement
The release of the movie, instead of being originally scheduled for December 5, was overnight canceled due to the legal disagreement with Eros International. Now that the problem is said to be solved, the continuation of the story is likely to be seen by the public quite soon.
