Akhil Akkine’s much awaited Telugu entertainer ‘Lenin’ has hit the theatres. As soon as the first shows ended, viewers started sharing their thoughts on X.
Fans praise the first half and the central block
Several viewers have shown the opening half of the film as one user wrote, “#Lenin First Half: Starts with a strong set-up, interesting characters, and #JrNTR’s voice-over that immediately impresses. However, the later parts feel slow, the love songs don’t have much impact, and even though they have a good part, the drama doesn’t quite live up to it. The video picks up well from the pre-interval block. Thaman’s BGM is excellent, and the bursts in the middle make for a real highlight of the second half. #LeninReview.”

Many social media users also praised Akhil Akkineni’s screen presence and performance in the role. Another viewer wrote, “#Lenin is an overachiever. Akhil reinvents himself and excels in his role. He carries the film effortlessly and makes sure he is ready to push himself. Bhagya Sree is simply amazing. Nandu keeps the story moving, without any flashbacks when the story reaches its climax. The show is always entertaining. “

A listener praised the emotional story, “#Lenin First Half: Powerful and interesting. We expected the first half to be very full, but it has a lot of story and drama. The friendship and love songs are handled well, and since more people are given screen time, the emotional drama is better. Akhil and Bhagyasree are a strong family. The episodes are unpredictable. #Lenin”
