Here's
a
breakdown
of
the
day-wise
box
office
collection
of
Akhil
Akkineni's
Agent:

(Early
estimates)
Ramakrishna
alias
Ricky
(Akhil
Akkineni)
dreams
of
working
as
an
agent
in
the
Research
Analysis
Wing
(RAW)
that
safeguards
the
country's
security.
Ricky
considers
Chief
Mahadev
(Mammootty)
as
his
mentor.
Due
to
his
aggressive
nature
and
restlessness,
he
gets
rejected
many
times
for
a
job
in
the
company.
Mahadev
tries
to
thwart
the
evil
attempts
of
Dharma
alias
God
(Dino
Morea)
who
wants
to
destroy
the
country.
In
such
a
situation
Mahadev
hires
Ricky
as
an
ethical
hacker.
Why
Ricky
Becomes
Ethical
Hacker?
Why
did
Ricky
want
to
join
Raw?
Why
does
he
consider
Mahadev
as
Guru?
Why
did
Dharma
take
the
incarnation
of
God?
Why
does
he
leave
his
beloved
(Sakshi
Vaidya)
whom
he
loves
dearly?
Why
did
Ricky
kill
Mahadev
whom
he
considered
his
guru?
The
story
of
the
film
Agent
is
the
answer
to
the
questions
of
how
Ricky
finally
thwarted
God's
evil
efforts.
Agent
starts
with
an
emotional
point
where
Mahadev
is
shot
dead
by
Ricky.
After
that,
Akhil's
entry
will
be
opened
in
the
mass
range
with
some
action
sequences.
But
the
Ricky
Family
episode
feels
very
regular
and
routine.
And
the
love
track
with
Sakshi
Vaidya
is
also
too
normal.
The
episode
where
Union
Minister
Jai
Kishan
is
given
a
warning
in
the
first
half
works
well
on-screen.
The
interval
bangs
with
a
good
action
block
and
the
second
half
gets
interesting.
Dharma
Alias
God
will
open
a
flash
back
to
answer
the
question
of
why
he
rebelled
against
the
RAW
system.
But
that
point
doesn't
seem
very
convincing.
Nor
does
Ricky's
point
as
to
why
he
decided
to
become
an
agent
seem
strong.
Climax
also
fails
to
impress
the
audience.
Though
the
action
sequences,
Mammootty's
performance,
Akhil's
powerful
fights,
different
body
language
were
good,
it
does
not
feel
like
a
spy
thriller
that
takes
the
audience
to
a
new
world.
Action
portions
crafted
by
director
Surender
Reddy
are
good.
But
he
fails
to
give
a
strong
story
and
a
good
love
track.
It
would
have
been
a
better
spy
thriller
if
the
director
had
paid
some
attention
to
the
story.
Agent
movie
is
like
a
promotion
for
Akhil.
Akhil's
hard
work
towards
his
role
is
visible
in
every
scene.
It
must
be
said
that
he
has
scored
well
as
a
mass
action
hero.
The
heroine
Sakshi
Vaidya
has
no
scope
for
performance.
When
it
comes
to
the
rest
of
the
characters
in
Agent,
Mammootty's
character
dominates.
Dino
Morea
performed
well
in
the
scope
of
his
role.
Varalakshmi
Sarathkumar
looked
like
a
doll
in
an
unimportant
role.
Many
scenes
are
elevated
just
because
of
the
amazing
sound
effects
and
background
music.
The
songs
are
very
bad.
Urvashi
Rautela's
special
song
sounds
the
same.
Cinematography
by
Rasul
Ellore
is
good.
But
the
VFX
work
is
not
up
to
expectations.
