Sankranthi – 2024 season is witnessing a 300Cr business. With 2024 fast approaching, the Telugu film industry is preparing for a huge release festival that will open gates for the highly profitable Sankranthi season in the second week of January. Six Telugu films have been announced to be targeting the season without any misses, and because of this, Sankranthi – 2024 season is witnessing a 300Cr business.
As said above, there are total 6 straight films, Mahesh Babu’s Guntur Kaaram, Venkatesh’s Saindhav, Teja Sajja’s Hanuman, Ravi Teja’s Eagle, Nagarjuna’s Naa Saami Ranga, and Vijay Deverakonda’s Family Star are set to be released.
Also, 3 dubbed films, Siva Karthikeyan’s Ayalaan, Rajinikanth’s Lal Salaam, and Dhanush’s Captain Miller have also announced for Sankranthi release. The Dubbed films will not be able to do a great business as there are multiple straight films. Even though there as a Rajinikanth’s film, no business is expected for it in Telugu states because it does not have a full-fledged character, and he will be seen in a cameo role only.
Coming to the straight films, Mahesh Babu and Trivikram’s Guntur Kaaram’s worldwide theatrical business is expected to do in the range of 150Cr. Venkatesh’s Saindhav and Teja Sajja’s Hanuman are expected to do 25Cr range business.
Eagle and Naa Saami Ranga are expected to do 20Cr range business, while Vijay Deverakonda’s Family star is expected to do 40Cr range business worldwide.
So if we put all these films together, the Telugu version’s business will be around 280Cr, and including dubbed films and other publicity costs, the total Sankranthi business is coming at the range of 300Cr.
As of now, no team is ready to postpone the release, and all the films have started the promotional content and getting the films’ ready for Sankranthi. If all movies come as per plan, then Sankranthi season will witness a 300Cr business. We must wait and see how this Sankranthi competing turns at the end.
