The Sankranthi 2027 clash between Chiranjeevi’s two films is far from settled. A day after the Kaaka team officially announced their Sankranthi release, Vishwambhara director Mallidi Vasishta has posted on X Platform raising the concern again, making it clear that neither side is backing down from the same slot.
Why Vishwambhara Wants This Slot
Vishwambhara has faced multiple delays due to financial issues, and a Sankranthi 2027 release could offer major relief to the project. The film’s non theatrical business for this slot is already done, and the theatrical business is also expected to be strong once it releases.
Why Kaaka Wants This Slot
Kaaka carries the successful Bobby and Chiranjeevi combination, the same pairing that delivered the blockbuster Waltair Veerayya. From the start of the shoot, Bobby has been targeting a Sankranthi release, and the team has been working at a fast pace to stick to that timeline.
Neither Side Backing Down
Bith teams want the same Sankranthi slot, and neither is willing to give up their claim to it. With Vasishta’s fresh post keeping the issue alive right after Kaaka’s announcement, it is clear this is not a one sided decision yet. It remains to be seen how things unfold in the coming days, and whether Chiranjeevi himself will have to step in to resolve it.
