"In the whole movie I've loved Akhil, not for those 30 seconds", says Amala Akkineni, former heroine and wife of Nagarjuna. This beautiful mom is very happy that her son Akhil has proved his mettle as a hero with debut film. "Akhil" is elusive of commercial success but not those praises from darling dad and mom.

When both Nagarjuna and Akhil appeared on the screen, who grabbed your eyes, Amala?— She responds quickly. "All the time I'm watching only Akhil, but when Nagarjuna came, my husband dominated the show. I've watched my husband for those 30 seconds", reveals Amala candidly. Of course, not just her but the whole Telugu audiences felt stunned about Nagarjuna's presence. Needless to say, our Manmadhudu has dominated even King too.
