Actor Akhil Akkineni’s latest release ‘Agent’ turned out to be a disaster at the box office. Taking to social media, Akhil shared a heartfelt note and admitted that they couldn’t deliver a good film for the audience, despite trying their level best.
His statement read, ‘To my dearest fans and all my well-wishers. I want to sincerely thank the cast and crew of Agent who dedicated their lives to see our film come to life. While we tried our level best, the film unfortunately didn't translate the way we wished it would on the screen and we could not deliver a good film for you.’
He added, ‘A special thanks to my producer Anil garu who was my biggest support system. Thank you to all the distributors who believed in our film and also the media who supported us immensely. The love and energy you all give me is the reason I work and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for that. I will come back stronger for all those who believe in me. Yours faithfully Akhil Akkineni.’
Akhil’s mother Amala Akkineni had also reacted to people who rejected her son’s film on social media. She wrote, ‘I understand that trolling comes from a deeper insecurity and need for achievement. I watched Agent yesterday and honestly enjoyed the film. While it has its flaws, if you watch it with an open mind, you will be amazed . The hall I watched it at was packed, half of the audience were ladies, mothers and grandmothers along with their husbands and sons! . There were screams when the action happened. And I am sure the next one will be bigger and better.’
‘Agent’, directed by Surender Reddy, also starred Malayalam actor Mammootty and Dino Morea in pivotal roles.
