As mentioned earlier, Akka takes center stage as an intriguing period thriller. In fact, it features popular South Indian actress Keerthy Suresh and acting powerhouse Radhika Apte. In a recent interview with Variety, a trade source shared, “The fact that Keerthy and Radhika have been pitted against each other makes ‘Akka’ one of the most intriguing streaming projects being made in the country currently.”

Additionally, the visionary force behind Akka is debutant writer and director Dharmaraj Shetty. YRF’s Aditya Chopra reportedly discovered him.

Furthermore, the source added, “His [Dharmaraj Shetty] vision for ‘Akka’ grabbed Aditya’s attention, and the project was greenlit instantly with a brief from Adi to make ‘Akka’ one of the biggest tentpole series that YRF Entertainment will ever make. Every detail of this project will be kept under wraps purposely by YRF to build intrigue.”

As the days progress, more details regarding Akka will come to the forefront.
