Reportedly, the Madras High Court has put a stay on the film's release after Eros International Media Limited filed an appeal linked to a long-standing financial dispute.
According to the order, Akhanda 2 cannot be released in theatres, stream on digital platforms and also cannot be broadcast via satellite until the makers clear dues of nearly Rs 28 crore plus 14% interest, which they owe to Eros.
Along with Nandamuri Balakrishna, Akhanda 2 also stars Samyuktha Menon, Aadhi Pinisetty, Harshaali Malhotra and Kabir Duhan Singh.
