Fully pumped to start soon.
Energy all the way @AKentsOfficial @S2C_Offl #Akhil5," the actor tweeted.
The film's story is penned by Vakkantham Vamsi.
Ajay Sunkara, Pathi Deepa Reddy are attached as co-producers while Kishore Garikapati will be the executive producer on the project.
Other cast and crew details are awaited.
Akkineni, son of superstar Nagarjuna, was last seen on the big screen in 2019's romantic comedy "Mr Majnu".
