The post read, “Akhanda 2 brings back the blockbuster combination of 'God of Masses' Nandamuri Balakrishna and director Boyapati Sreenu, a duo celebrated for redefining mass action entertainers and creating some of the most iconic moments in Telugu cinema.”

“For a film of this scale, the re-recording, VFX, and the entire post-production process demand meticulous attention and therefore require additional time to present the film at its absolute best, considering the weight of expectations Akhanda 2 carries following the blockbuster success of the first part,” they further added.

The statement continued saying that while the crew is working tirelessly around the clock to deliver the best product, the film will be postponed from the original release date. Moreover, a new release date will be announced in due time.

The makers concluded and wrote, “We are fully committed to exceeding all expectations and giving audiences a theatrical experience worth the wait. Akhanda 2 Will Not Just Be A Film, It Will Be A Festival Of Cinema.”
