Nandamuri Balakrishna’s “Akhanda” set the box office on fire. The mass entertainer became the highest grosser in Balakrishna’s career. The Boyapati directed actioner is now streaming on Disney+Hostar.
Even on the OTT space, it created record views on Hotstar. As it premiered during the weekend, the discussion on the film was more.
While it has garnered millions of impressions, it has also allowed trolls to have a field day. They are mercilessly trolling Boyapati’s brand of illogical scenes and over-the-top masala moments.
Balakrishna’s performance as Akhanda and the issue of Hindu temples are the only elements that are receiving appreciation. Facebook and Twitter are filled with memes and trolls.

“Only Boyapati things…if not temples and Hinduism, it is another #VVR…#verithanam”
“Outdated story, packed with over the top scenes, Loud BGM to elevate few mass seq. ‘Jai Balayya’ song dance is fun.”
