Akhil Akkineni’s latest release, Agent, has failed to impress the audiences and critics alike. The film opened well on its day of release; April 28, 2023, but witnessed a major drop in its box office collection over the weekend due to a tough clash against Mani Ratnam’s magnum opus film Ponniyin Selvan 2.

Dino Morea’s Telugu Film Debut
Agent marks Bollywood actor Dino Morea’s Telugu film industry debut. Speaking about the same, the actor told Bollywood Life, “It was great. My journey with Agent movie has been very exciting actually. I have been associated with them for two years now and we have seen different phases of the film and I am glad I am part of it.”
“This is the first project I received from the Telugu film industry. It excited me because of how the character was written. I play a spy who turned into a rogue due to different circumstances and after what he went through. He's not a normal antagonist...he has his reasons to transform into what he is today. And the film is made on a huge canvas,” Dino Morea said in his interview.
Dino Morea also said that he is open to working in more Tollywood films post Agent.
