Nagarjuna completing 40 years is a huge milestone! Such a versatile actor. But I wonder if Akhil can carry a film on his own. His previous movies have been mixed. The teaser does look fresh though - love the village backdrop and romantic vibe.
June 26 release? Perfect timing for summer holidays! The teaser gives me 'Majili' vibes but with more action. Murali Kishor Abburu is a talented director. Hope this becomes a comeback for Akhil. 🤞
Nagarjuna's journey is truly inspiring - from child actor to superstar to producer. And releasing a teaser on such an emotional day connected to his father and his own debut... very heartfelt. But I wish the teaser had shown more of the plot rather than just songs and action flashes.
Finally some good news for Telugu cinema fans! The teaser looks promising. Bhagyashri Borse is a fresh pairing with Akhil. Hope the story has depth beyond just romance and action. June 26 can't come soon enough! 💫
Akhil needs a solid hit now. His talent is evident but he hasn't quite found the right project. This one seems to blend romance and action which is his father's specialty. The teaser is well-cut but let's wait for the trailer to decide. Happy 40 years to Nagarjuna garu! 🙏
