ETimes verdict
Our ETimes review shared a mixed opinion on the sequel. The review stated, “In the end, Akhanda 2 delivers scale, noise and a handful of impactful moments but struggles to recreate the gripping emotional core and narrative tightness that made Akhanda click for many viewers. It lands as a grand yet uneven sequel: ambitious in spirit, loud in execution and inconsistent in engagement.”DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers in this article are compiled from our proprietary sources and diverse public data.
