King Nagarjuna dreamed a bright future for his second son Akhil. He expected a lot from him and none can forget the manner in which he was launched on screen. Even before his launch on screen, Akhil captured the imagination of all by becoming the brand ambassador of various top companies at national level.
Rumors spread that Nagarjuna was behind Akhil getting so many top brands. Some even felt that Nagarjuna planned to turn Akhil into a Bollywood hero and so tried to make him the brand ambassador for top brands. Using his contacts he even made Akhil get trained in Mumbai and even introduced him to top Bollywood stars. Despite all his efforts, Akhil's career is going nowhere after his debut film Akhil-The Power of Jua turned out to be a disaster.
Even Hello claiming Akhil's relaunch didn’t get the desired result. Nag and Akkineni family are pinning all the hopes on Mr Majnu. One cannot predict the fate of the film, but Nag is not stopping promoting him vigorously. Sometime back Nag revealed that Karan Johar is keen to introduce him in Bollywood but he is preventing him to do so.
Despite the track record of Akhil at the box office, many got surprised how he is getting brand offers. Recently Annapurna Studios released snaps of Akhil with Team India captain Virat Kohli. Akhil was seen casually speaking and shaking hands with Kohli, the youth icon at international level. Those who watched the pictures felt that Nag is intensifying efforts to increase the craze for Akhil.
