After completing 3 successful weeks at the box office, Akhil Akkineni’s latest film Lenin is now gearing up for its OTT streaming. The Telugu action drama marked Akhil’s return to the theatres after 3 years. He was last seen in the film Agent. The film failed to impress at the box office. However, Lenin changed his box-office game for good, bringing him the long-awaited success.
Lenin: Plot & Storyline
Lenin is set in a small town called Sriramapuram during the 18-day Bharatam Metta festival. The film is heavily inspired by the Mahabharata. Akhil plays an orphan boy named Lenin, who is adopted by the respected Jayanthi and grows up alongside her son Vasanth. Certain events lead Lening to serve a prison sentence. Years after his prison days, he recounts his past to a young boy named Dilli as he prepares to confront his enemies.
In the past, Lenin fell in love with Bharathi, but their relationship sparked rivalries involving MLA Raghava Reddy, his henchmen Damodaram and Tulasi, and Yatirajulu, Jayanthi’s insecure stepbrother who dreams of becoming the festival’s Dharmaraju. As conspiracies unfold, Bharathi’s sister Vaidehi is murdered. She was initially set to marry Vasanth. However, after her death, Vasanth’s marriage is arranged with Bharathi. However, Bharathi publicly chooses Lenin over Vasanth, and the lovers marry. Later, hidden betrayals come to light as Vasanth, obsessed with Bharathi, secretly joins forces with Yatirajulu and the MLA to eliminate Lenin. Their plan culminates in a tragic confrontation where a partially blinded Lenin is tricked into fatally stabbing Bharathi and is imprisoned for her murder. In the present, Lenin vows to exact revenge from all those who betrayed him.
