There is a lot of hype surrounding Akhil’s upcoming pan-Indian project ‘Agent’. The action-packed teaser and ‘Malli Malli’ song have definitely increased the expectations on this movie which is all set to thrill the audience in theatres from 28th April. Akhil is expecting to reach the next level with this spy action thriller. After three failures, he scored his first hit with ‘Most Eligible Bachelor’ and ‘Agent’ has a lot riding on it.
There were reports that Sony LIV bought the OTT streaming rights and the latest we hear is that big-budget racy action flick is going for fancy rates in the market. According to reports, the theatrical rights of Telugu states and Karnataka were sold wholesale for 34 crores which is excluding GST.
Apparently, Gayatri Films Satish from Vishaka has bought the rights by quoting above the rest. While others went till 30-32 crores, Satish reportedly bought it for 34 crores which is a very good price for an Akhil film. Also, the non-theatrical rights too went for a very good amount but sources say that the movie will be released with a deficit of around 15 crores and it is mainly due to Surender Reddy who reportedly spent a lot of grandeur and constant reshoots. Let us see what happens with ‘Agent’ in the coming days.
Crazy music composer Hip Hop Tamizha is scoring the music while top writer Vakkantam Vamsi has penned the story. Produced by Rambrahmam Sunkara under AK Entertainments banner along with Surender 2 Cinema banner, this movie will be released in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada languages.
Malayalam legendary actor Mammootty is playing a key role in ‘Agent’ while Sakshi Vaidya is the heroine. Ragul Herian Dharuman cranks the camera and Navin Nooli is the editor.
