Akhil Akkineni To Romance Janhvi Kapoor In Dheera?

Akhil Akkineni is now focusing on coming back with renewed energy to the sets of his upcoming film titled Dheera. His recent film Agent, written by Vakkantham Vamsi and directed by Surender Reddy, has become one of the biggest disasters in the Tollywood industry and his career so far.

Despite Agent's disastrous performance at the box office, the makers of his next are willing to shell a bomb on the production of the film, which is touted to be a fantasy adventure drama.

Akhil To Romance Janhvi Kapoor?

According to the buzz inside Tollywood, Dheera makers want to cast Janhvi Kapoor as the female lead character. The makers have approached the actress with the script, and a decision is yet to be made.

Janhvi Kapoor is making her south acting debut with Jr NTR's highly-ambitious project Devara. The actress is reportedly charging Rs 4 Crore for the film, which will be released all over the world.

While there are also rumours about Janhvi Kapoor being in talks for a film with one of her favourite actors Vijay Deverakonda, there is no concrete information on the same.

Dheera To Be Made On Rs 100 Crore

Akhil Akkineni's upcoming, which will be helmed by debutant Anil Kumar, is a fantasy adventure drama, and makers- UV Creations, are willing to fund about Rs 100 Crore for the same.

Akhil Akkineni is keen on scoring success, which is crucial for his career as an actor. Except for 'Most Eligible Bachelor,' which did fairly well at the box office, Akhil's all other films tanked upon their theatrical release, much to the disappointment of the Akkineni fans.
