Akhil Akkineni is raring to make a solid comeback with Lenin, his 6th movie. Directed by Murali Kishore Abburu of Vinaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha fame, the romantic action drama revovles around the themes of love, violence and why the latter might be needed to secure the former.
Its power-packed Title Glimpse was unveiled today by Annapurna Studios and Sithara Entertainments. Producers Akkineni Nagarjuna and S Naga Vamsi released the video on the occasion of Akhil's birthday.
"When we are born, all that we have is the breath and no name. By the time we die, we have lost the breath and have only the name that we have made for ourselves," Akhil's character thoughtfully quotes his father's character as saying in the movie. It will be interesting to see which artist is going to play the father.
The film marks the maiden pairing of the Akhil-Sreeleela duo. One of the final shots has them facing pouncing goondas, with the heroine hiding behind her protective man.
Thaman's music is reminiscent of his famed soundscape for big-ticket movies. Naveen Kumar I is the cinematographer. "An experience that hits every emotion like a storm," the makers wrote on social media. "Eesari vastunnam.. Gattiga Kodutunnam (sic)," Naga Vamsi wrote, assuring Akhil's comeback.
