Akkineni Akhil’s career is not progressing as expected. Despite being a meticulous planner, Nagarjuna is somehow fumbling in the case of his younger son. There are several reasons for the delay in materialization of Akhil’s films, and Superstar Mahesh Babu might be one indirect reason.
After ‘Akhil’ bombed, Nag asked Vamsi Paidipally, who had just directed the critically acclaimed ‘Oopiri’, to relaunch his son with a youthful entertainer, which could have been Akhil’s second film. After working on the script for some time, Vamsi backed out of the project citing he needed more time. Nag and Vamsi then came to an amicable decision that the latter directs Akhil’s 3rd film.
In the meanwhile, Vamsi wanted to complete Mahesh Babu’s film. He spent lots of time in fine tuning the script but the project kept getting delayed due to the delay in Mahesh’s prior commitments. Rather than doing another film, Vamsi however decided to wait for Mahesh patiently.
Now, Akhil is waiting to kick-start his 3rd film but Vamsi is still unavailable as he is getting ready to take Mahesh’s film onto floors. As the already committed director not available, Nag had to run from pillar to post to rope in another star director, which is delaying #Akhil3. Koratala Siva is most likely to direct #Akhil3 but the Akkineni hero will have to wait until he completes ‘Bharat Ane Nenu’ (again ‘Mahesh factor’ comes into play).
Meanwhile, Nag has asked Vamsi Paidipally to direct Akhil after wrapping up Mahesh’s film, and the director obliged. Akhil-Paidipally film could be #Akhil4.
