Dil Raju is one of the top producers in Tollywood and he is looking to expand his brand to other languages too. He is producing ‘Jersey’ remake in Hindi and he is now all set to make a mark in Kollywood too. Going by the current trend of making films with a larger appeal, he is planning films with top stars of Tamil with Telugu directors.
Thalapathy Vijay who is on a roll with back-to-back hits is ready to make his Telugu debut in the direction of Vamsi Paidipally. Apparently, this film is going to be made in Telugu as well as Tamil and it will be released in other languages too. Dil Raju is bankrolling this project as per reports.
On the other side, a lot of filmmakers are trying to make a straight Telugu with star hero Suriya. Considering Suriya’s craze and stardom in both Telugu states and Tamil Nadu, everyone is waiting for one such huge project. The talk in tinsel town is that Dil Raju is making moves to make a pan-South Indian film with Suriya. If things go as planned, mass director Boyapati Sreenu will be handling the megaphone for this project.
Boyapati is working on ‘Akhanda’ right now and he penned a few powerful projects during the lockdown and one of them is expected to be with Suriya. It will be a treat to Suriya’s fans and people are eagerly waiting for it. Seems like Dil Raju is aiming big by bringing together Telugu and Tamil industries and making universally appealing projects. If this works out, Dil Raju will be becoming a huge brand in South India.

Akhanda 2 Postponed: Big Boost for Andhra King Taluka
Nandamuri Balakrishna’s highly awaited sequel Akhanda 2, directed by Boyapati Srinu, has been postponed indefinitely just hours before its scheduled release due to unexpected financial hurdles. This sudden development has come as a major shock for trade circles, especially since the film has been carrying massive hype thanks to the powerful Balayya–Boyapati combination.
With Akhanda 2 pushed ahead and no other major releases lined up this weekend, Ram’s Andhra King Taluka — which released last week to decent reviews — now gets a fresh opportunity to fill the box-office vacuum. Despite favourable critical reception and reasonably positive word of mouth, the film managed only moderate numbers in its first week. Even the team acknowledged that the positive talk did not translate into strong collections.
Trade analysts had earlier predicted that Andhra King Taluka would end its theatrical run on a below-par note, anticipating Akhanda 2 to dominate mass centres with a massive release. However, this last-minute postponement has turned out to be an unexpected blessing for the Ram-starrer, giving it an extended solo run across territories this weekend.
The only concern for the team is the loss of momentum after the first weekend, as audiences have been eagerly waiting for Akhanda 2 and the upcoming Sankranti releases. Whether Andhra King Taluka can regain traction and witness a noticeable jump in collections over the weekend remains to be seen. The coming days will reveal if the film can make the most of this sudden opportunity.
Directed by P. Mahesh Babu, Andhra King Taluka stands out as a fanboy’s tribute to his cinema demigod. Ram’s chemistry with Bhagyashri Borse and Upendra’s impactful performance have been widely appreciated by both audiences and critics.
