Akhanda 2, starring Nandamuri Balakrishna, may have underperformed at the box office, but it's making waves on Netflix. The film, released on December 12, collected just over ₹110 Cr gross in theaters, but its non-theatrical rights were acquired by Netflix for a record price.
Streaming on Netflix from January 9, Akhanda 2 has registered strong viewership, clocking 2 million views from January 9 to 11. The film trended in the top 10 in 7 countries, including India, Bangladesh, and UAE, and is listed as the 4th non-English movie with the most views on Netflix for the week of January 5-11.
In India, Akhanda 2 is listed in 3rd place, a remarkable feat considering it was only available for 3 days. The film's success on Netflix is expected to boost Balakrishna's next film's digital deals. With its growing popularity, Akhanda 2 is likely to see bigger views in the coming weeks.
The film's strong performance on Netflix is a testament to its engaging content and the star power of Balakrishna. As one of the most-watched films on the platform, Akhanda 2 is definitely worth a try.
