It is noteworthy that filming commenced at the Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj.

Grand release worldwide for Dussehra on September 25th, 2025.”

'Akhanda 2 - Thaandavam' has generated significant buzz, especially since the previous installment, Akhanda, became a massive hit, running for over 100 days in more than 100 centers and impressively lasting 175 days in one specific theater.
The first Akhanda was produced on a budget considered to be the highest for a Balakrishna film, yielding remarkable box office results. The success prompted director Boyapati Sreenu and Balakrishna to collaborate once again.
Interestingly, Akhanda marked the third consecutive blockbuster from this duo, following their earlier successes with Simhaa and Legend.
