A Killing Akira

Part-thriller, part-masala centered around a character worth studying, powerfully played by Sonakshi Sinha. (more)

No More Damsel In Distress; This Time Sonakshi Sinha Is A Rebel!

No matter whether you are a Sonakshi Sinha fan or not, we suggest you to watch Akira, only and only for her career best performance!(more)

Akira is no breakthrough for women power in Hindi cinema.

Akira is an entertainer.

Akira will surely manage to get you intrigued right from the start. But there�s too many theatrics to sit through here. Plus, the script as well as the acting performance are not strong enough to make you invested in the lead character, Akira. This film is a good one-time watch, but like we said, if...(more)
