Tollywood circles are abuzz with reports that Sreeleela might walk out of the upcoming political drama Lenin, starring Akhil Akkineni, due to clashing shoot dates with her other commitments.
Directed by Murali Kishore Abburu, Lenin is one of the most ambitious projects in Akhil’s career, delving deep into political intrigue and powerful character arcs. Sreeleela was tapped to play a pivotal female lead, but her busy schedule—packed with several high-profile films—is reportedly causing conflicts with Lenin’s shooting calendar.
While the makers haven’t issued an official statement, insiders say the production team is exploring alternate casting options should the scheduling issue remain unresolved. Fans were eager to see Sreeleela and Akhil share screen space in a content-driven narrative, making this potential exit all the more disappointing.
For now, discussions between Sreeleela’s team and the Lenin producers are ongoing. An official update is expected in the coming days.
