Is Akhanda 2 A Success?
Akhanda 2 is reportedly mounted on a budget of 200 crore, and the film has recovered only 22% of its budget in 48 hours. Balayya needs a big push to recover the entire 200 crore and then move to the profit-making zone.However, it would be impossible for the film to be called a hit, since it would need a total of 400 crore collection in India to be called a hit.

Akhanda VS Akhanda 2
Akhanda earned 89 crore at the box office in its lifetime in India, and the sequel might soon go past this number in the upcoming week. However, Akhanda was a success since it was mounted on a budget of 60 crore, something that would be difficult for Akhanda 2 to achieve.
