Abhiruchi Cookery Show -13th April

Akhanda 2 has completed its initial days in theatres, giving the trade enough clarity on its overall performance. The film was sold at different rates across regions, and this uneven pricing has directly impacted recoveries. While the movie opened well in a few pockets, the general audience response has been mixed. Balakrishna’s strong fan base has supported the film, but outside this section, the reception has been moderate.

Ceeded and the Nellore–Guntur belt have shown better hold, with nearly half of the investment recovered during the opening weekend. Nizam has also seen partial recovery. However, Uttarandhra, East Godavari, West Godavari and Krishna districts have not performed up to expectations, indicating weak momentum and likely losses in those territories. The overseas market has been the biggest disappointment, turning out to be a loss-making region for the film.

Overall, Akhanda 2 has performed decently in a few mass regions but has fallen short in many others. With mixed word-of-mouth and fluctuating occupancy, the movie is tracking as average in select areas while underperforming across several key territories.
