Many films are released on the occasion of Sankranti, the most important festival that occurs every year. In addition, three major films are preparing for simultaneous release for the upcoming Sankranti.
Prabhas' mythological drama film Adipurush, directed by Bollywood director Om Raut, has already confirmed a January 12 release date. While the movie's teaser will be released tomorrow, the unit will begin other promotions soon. This Ramayana-based film will star Prabhas as Raghava, Kriti Sanon as Sita, and Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh.
The production of Megastar Chiranjeevi's 154th film, directed by Bobby, is currently underway. This film is being produced by Mythri Movie Makers. The title Waltair Veeraiya is being considered for this film, which will be a good action entertainer. Meanwhile, the producers have already stated that this film will be released on Sankranti.
Along with these, Thalapathy Vijay is joining the race with Varisu/Vaarasudu, a huge film directed by Vamsi Paidipally and produced by Dil Raju. This film, starring Rashmika Mandanna as the heroine, is intended to be a grand action commercial.
Varisu, which is currently in production, will also be released in theatres on Sankranti, according to the makers. As a result, while these three big movies are almost certain to be in the Sankranthi race, it does appear that there will be a three-way box office battle for the upcoming Sankranthi.
