When Balakrishna's Aghora diktat rejected outright

Balakrishna is known for his powerful high octane mass action entertainers on the silver screen. He is currently starring in Akhandha under the direction of Boyapati Srinu and also in a multistarrer with Kalyan Ram under the direction of Anil Ravipudi. Expectations are high on Akhandha as Balakrishna and Boyapati earlier scored hits like Simhaa and Legend. 

It is known that Balakrishna is playing dual roles in the film and in one role he is seen as Aghora. The Aghora look released by the makers is getting a record number of views on social media. But inside talk is Balakrishna was apprehensive of the look and asked Boyapati to cut short the role. 

Balakrishna insisted on it as an astrologer asked Balakrishna against doing the role. However, Boyapati rejected his diktat saying the role is pivotal to the film. Akhanda stars Pragya Jaiswal and Srikanth in important roles. It has to be seen whether the astrologer's reduction about Balakrishna's Aghora will turn true at the box office.
