Akhanda 2 was released today, and fans rushed to early morning shows to catch the highly anticipated motion drama. The sequel brings back Nandamuri Balakrishna in his magnanimous Aghora avatar. Soon after the show ended, viewers began posting their reactions on X (formerly Twitter). The responses are a combination of pleasure, disappointment and enthusiasm.
Netizens Share Their Reactions On X
One user strongly criticized the film, calling it “utter crap.” The user said that the one good parts were the dialogues on India, motherhood, Sanatana Dharma, and the Lord Shiva cameo. This viewer felt that the makers would promote these clips heavily, however the film is not going to survive long within the theaters. He even predicted a lifetime box office collection of around 65-75 crore at essentially the most.
This utter crap movie had good dialogues on India, mother, Sanatana Dharma, and the Lord Shiva cameo.
They’ll push these video promos hard on TV and someway drag it till this weekend… after that, the run will likely be done.
Golden opportunity wasted 🙏
Max: 65–75 cr#Akhanda2— Storm Breaker (@StormBrekerr) December 12, 2025
One other user shared an opposing view, saying Akhanda 2 delivers big time. This user praised the implausible first half, the outstanding second half and the powerful dialogues within the movie. The netizen wrote that the interval scene, the emotional moments between Shivudu and Amma, and the Shiva Thaandavam climax gave pure goosebumps. Her verdict is that the film is “A definite blockbuster.”

Another user offered an easy warning to viewers, “For those who loved the primary part, it is a festival. For those who want logic, stay away.”

One other netizen posted a breakdown of the film’s flow. The user said that it starts with an Akhanda recap, followed by political dialogues and the Jajikaya song. Additionally they praised Thaman’s BGM and said the pre-interval stretch hits “PEAKS.” The user added that one of the best strategy to benefit from the film is to put aside logic and have a good time Balayya’s mass appeal.

Overall Verdict
Examining the early X reactions, Akhanda 2 has clearly struck a chord with motion enthusiasts and devotees of Shiva. The interval block, Thaman’s background rating and the devotional-action moments, especially the Shiva Thaandavam, received loads of appreciation. At the identical time, some users feel the film is loud, illogical and never on top of things as a sequel.
