Pragya Jaiswal, who many still remember from Akhanda with Nandamuri Balakrishna, popped back into conversation after Balayya casually revealed something unexpected. In an interview, he said that he and Boyapati Sreenu tried to figure out a place for her in the sequel but couldn’t find a part that actually mattered. Bringing her in again would just drag the film’s length, so they decided to close her character’s chapter completely. Fans didn’t take it lightly, because most of them assumed she’d return with something fun in Akhanda 2.
