Dark clouds loomed over the release of Balakrishna's film Akhanda 2 after Madras High Court stalled the film's release on Wednesday. While the producers of the action entertainer tried their best to bail out the film, their efforts went in vain. As a result, Akhanda 2, which was slated to release on Friday (December 5, 2025), isn't releasing as scheduled. The production house, 14 Reels Plus, officially confirmed the news on their social media handle.
