The time is fast approaching for another star kid to enter Tollywood. This time, it is from Akkineni family and the boy is Akhil, son of Nagarjuna and Amala. As part of that, it is heard Nagarjuna is having his fears on his boy’s debut. Recently, Nag admitted in an interview that he did a big mistake by not showing proper attention on his other son Naga Chaitanya’s debut.
Now, sources from Annapurna Studios reveal Nag is bent upon not repeating such a mistake. As part of that, it is heard that Deva Katta has been chosen as the director for Akhil’s debut. Buzz is that Nag told Deva Katta to narrate his story to Trivikram Srinivas and if that is approved they can go ahead.
Trivikram reportedly liked the story and gave the green signal. Sources say Nag assigned the task of dialogues, screenplay to Trivikram and he agreed. All this goes to show that Nag is taking special care for Akhil’s arrival. While he is doing his best to ensure Akhil’s debut would be grand and well, there are those who are commenting as to why he showed so much neglect when Chaitu was arriving.
