Bhagyashri Borse Replaces Sreeleela In Akhil Akkineni's Lenin
Last Updated: Sreeleela has exited from Akhil Akkineni's Lenin because of scheduling conflicts. Ace actor-turned-producer Nagarjuna's younger son, Akhil Akkineni, is all set to win over audiences with his rugged avatar in Lenin. The upcoming political drama, directed by filmmaker Kishore Abburu, starred Sreeleela as the female lead. But it was later reported that the actress has exited from the film because of scheduling conflicts. Now, it seems the search for another actress who can play the lead role is finally over. Great Andhra, in its report, mentioned that the makers have roped in actress Bhagyashri Borse as the female lead. But an official confirmation regarding the same is still awaited. Lenin marks Akhil's much-awaited comeback to the silver screen after a year-long hiatus, leaving everyone amused. To keep up the buzz, the makers have released the title glimpse of Akhil's movie on the actor's 31st birthday. Nagarjuna, who will also be co-producing Akhil Akkineni's 6th film under the banner of Annapurna Studios alongside Naga Vamsi under Sithara Entertainments, unveiled Lenin's title glimpse video on his X handle. The gripping one-minute glimpse featured a dramatic first look at the actor, much different from his usual romantic image in movies like Akhil, Hello, Mr Majnu, Most Eligible Bachelor and Agent. The film is reportedly based on the life of Russian communist revolutionary Vladimir Lenin. The teaser video also hinted that Akhil's character has a beautiful connection to Lord Krishna, adding a mythological significance to his upcoming movie. Coming back to Sreeleela, the actress is currently one of the busiest young stars in the South film industry. After impressing audiences with her performance in Mahesh Babu starrer Guntur Kaaram, she left everyone awestruck with her peppy dance number in Pushpa 2: The Rule. Up next, she has a jam-packed schedule of films in her kitty. Sreeleela will be seen in Junior, Mass Jathara, and the period drama Siva Karthikeyan's Parasakthi. Fans will also see the actress making her much-anticipated debut in Bollywood with Aashiqui 3, opposite Kartik Aaryan. Bhagyashri Borse, on the other hand, will be soon seen in the Vijay Deverakonda starrer Kingdom. The spy thriller, directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, will release on July 4. She also has Andhra King Taluka opposite Upendra in her pipeline. First Published:
