Hanuman, the devotional plus superhero film was released in theaters worldwide on Sankranti 2024, and it became a massive blockbuster collecting around 300 Cr gross collection at the box office. Also, the film emerged as Sankranthi winner for 2024, and it also became the all-time biggest grosser for Sankanthi. Even after a year, Hanuman Reigns as Tollywood’s Biggest Sankranthi Blockbuster.
Sankranthi Releases: HANU-MAN still tops the list
For the Telugu version, Ala Vaikunthapurramulo still holds the record, but if we consider all languages, Hanuman holds the record even today. Ram Charan and Shankar’s political action-drama Game Changer was released for this Sankranthi, and everyone expected it would break both Ala Vaikunthapurramulo in Telugu and Hanuman worldwide, but the film failed to impress and ended as a big disaster at the box office.
What is more shocking is, that Game Changer was able to collect only less than 200 Cr gross worldwide. Therefore, Hanuman reigns as Tollywood’s biggest Sankranthi blockbuster even now, and the record for the Telugu version will be with Ala Vaikunthapurramulo, with Anil Ravipudi – Venkatesh’s Sankranthiki Vasthunam likely to come very close in its full run.
