It may be noted that director Bommarilu Bhaskar and Akhil Akkineni’s film, titled Most Eligible Bachelor, went on the floors last year. Akhil reportedly agreed to do this project after the director convinced him with the strong storyline, say sources. Pooja Hegde plays the female lead in it with Aamani, Murali Sharma, Vennela Kishore, Jayaprakash, Pragathi, Amit TiwarI, Eesha Rebba and others in supporting roles. Gopi Sundar is composing the tunes for this flick with Pradeesh Varma cranking the camera and Marthand K Venkatesh doing the edits.

Akhil’s last film release was Mr. Majnu, which was directed by Venky Atluri and bankrolled by BVSN Prasad under his banner Sri Venkateswara Cine Chitra.
