Akkineni Akhil's prestigious debut film Akhil is gearing up for release on October 22nd. The makers want to cash in on the holiday release, but Akhil may find it tough to get enough theaters on its first day.
Bruce Lee is coming on October 16th and will occupy many screens until Thursday, i.e. the 22nd of October.
Rudrama Devi buyers are also making agreements for two weeks in most of the screens which means Akhil will only get good number of theaters if it comes on Friday.
If Akhil is forced to push the release by a day it will miss out on the big holiday as Dasara falls on Oct 22.
This is turning out to be a huge worry for Nithin and co to make sure that Akhil gets a solid release without missing out on the holiday release.
Buyers have invested so much in Akhil in spite of a debut hero. They are happy to release it on Dasara day as it gives ample scope for maximum recovery on day one.
But for that to happen Akhil has to get at least 900 screens on day one which seems almost impossible at this point.
