Why Is Vishwambhara vs Akhanda 2 Different From Waltair Veerayya vs Veera Simha Reddy
The stakes of the 2025 clash, if it happens, are very different. Vishwambhara is a mythological actioner, which is quite experimental. Also, the teaser that released on the Megastar's birthday, received a poor response. On the other hand, Akhanda 2 is the sequel of the blockbuster hit Akhanda, which marked the comeback of Nandamuri Balakrishna. The acclaimed actioner has nothing to worry of Vishwambhara, at this point in time. However, a Chiranjeevi film can't be underestimated. He has been the reigning star of Tollywood for the longest time.
