The makers of Akhil Akkineni’s high-stakes action drama ‘Lenin’ have officially announced that the film’s release has been pushed from its original May date to June 26, 2026.
This delay has fueled intense speculation regarding significant reshoots for certain key action sequences and the climax.
Directed by Murali Kishor Abburu and produced by Annapurna Studios, the film features Bhagyashri Borse as the female lead.
While the production house cited “respect for the craft” as the reason for the move, insiders suggest that the team is reworking parts of the second half to meet the massive expectations surrounding Akhil’s transformation for the role.
