It is now almost certain that Akhil will be starting his next film with director Venky Atluri. We have already reported that Akhil agreed to Venky Atluri's line but it has now been confirmed that the young actor will be launching his next immediate film with this director. In other words, Akhil has been in discussion with several directors. He will not be doing any of those films, but his next film will be with Venky Atluri as his director. 
 
The film will shortly be launched. Venky Atluri's maiden film 'Tholi Prema' became a hit. BVSN Prasad will produce this as well. 
 
Akhil's previous two movies 'Akhil' and 'Hello' were duds. He will be acting as lover boy in this movie.
