For the coming October, one of the most talked big films other than Ram Charan's "Bruce Lee" is Akkineni Akhil's "Akhil". The Akkineni youngster's new look, dynamic acts in action sequences, Vinayak's direction and Sayesha Saigal's cuteness are the main assets of this film. But there is something with the film's business that's being talked about.
Already we have went through the news that few distributors walked out from buying the film in Nizam and other areas. That's due to Nitin quoting some astronomical sum for the film's theatrical rights. Reason for quoting for such hefty prices is said to be over shot budget of the movie. Though they have initially thought that 25 crores would be highly enough to carve this film as a terrific commercial entertainer with all needed ingredients, in the making it has absorbed 15 crores more. That makes Akhil debut target 40 crores and even if Nitin sells the film without profits to distributors, it has to collect 40 crore 'share' to safely float them ashore.
Nitin has however defended the investment, though he didn't spoke about the figure, saying that Vinayak's story needed some posh locations in Spain and Africa and they haven't thought twice to invest on them. We have to see how the final business and film's performance will be upto.
