It’s time for the women to rule! Very few movies or series have explored what Netflix’s upcoming series, Akka, dares to explore. Whenever the 1980s are represented on screen, it is usually through angry young men and gangsters driven by deep-rooted vengeance. Women, meanwhile, have largely been portrayed as damsels in distress. However, with Akka, Netflix aims to present a world where women make the rules and rule over it. They hold the most powerful positions and decide what happens in business and at home.
Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte will share the screen for the first time in the upcoming series. While Keerthy assumes the titular role, Radhika will be seen as Rudhra, the woman who challenges Akka’s authority. We see anger and rage among the women as they go about their daily business, which involves money, power, knives, and guns.
The trailer introduces us to Pernuru, a land set in 1985, where the story is set. Keerthy Suresh plays Bhavani (Akka), the ruler of a clan that holds women in high regard. Her queendom is surrounded by fierce women who are unafraid of bloodshed and who follow the law of the land. However, Bhavani also faces threats from men in Bombay, who have different ways of conducting business. Her biggest enemy, though, is Rudhra, an equally ambitious woman who is determined to destroy Bhavani and her empire.
