Why Telugu Heroes Are Silent on Akhanda 2 Despite Talking About Sanatana Dharma
In recent times, many Telugu heroes often speak proudly about Sanatana Dharma and Indian culture in public events and interviews.
By: Priya Chowdhary Nuthalapti | 15 Dec 2025 10:42 AM ISTIn recent times, many Telugu heroes often speak proudly about Sanatana Dharma and Indian culture in public events and interviews. Because of this, audiences expected strong support from the Telugu film industry when Akhanda 2 was announced and released. The film strongly highlights Sanatana Dharma, spirituality and traditional values. However, what surprised many fans is the complete silence from most Telugu heroes on social media.
Not a single major hero tweeted or posted about the film. This silence became more noticeable because actors usually promote and support each other’s films openly. Even Mahesh Babu who regularly tweets for small and big movies did not share a single message about Akhanda 2. Similarly, Chiranjeevi, a senior figure in the industry, also stayed silent. This has left fans confused and disappointed.
The situation has triggered many questions. When Sanatana Dharma is spoken about so proudly on stage why is there hesitation to support a film that fully represents those beliefs? Fans feel this silence sends mixed signals. If unity truly exists in the industry, then support should not depend on personal equations or rivalries.
Music director Thaman yesterday in a success meet spoke about the lack of unity in the Telugu film industry. At that time, he was addressing a film release delay issue. But now, looking at the current situation, his words feel more relevant. The lack of public support for Akhanda 2 seems to reflect the same problem.
Despite this silence, Balakrishna continues to move forward strongly. He is delivering back-to-back hits without depending on promotions from fellow heroes. Akhanda 2 is being driven by content, belief, and strong fan support rather than social media endorsements.
