This year is no different, with a star-studded lineup promising an epic clash at the box office. Get ready for a rollercoaster ride of action, drama, and laughter as we take a closer look at the highly anticipated Telugu movies releasing for Sankranthi 2024:
- Guntur Karam (Jan 12th):
Guntur Karam
First up is the much-awaited ‘Guntur Karam’, a fiery action drama directed by the maestro Trivikram Srinivas. Superstar Mahesh Babu teams up with the talented Sreeleela and Meenakshi Chaudhary in this story set against the backdrop of factional politics in Guntur district. Expect high-octane action sequences, powerful dialogues, and Trivikram’s signature wit in this masala entertainer.
- Saindhav (Jan 13th):
Saindhav
Marking the 75th film of veteran actor Venkatesh Daggubati, ‘Saindhav’ promises a thrilling ride into the dark underworld. Directed by Sailesh Kolanu, the movie features Venkatesh in a never-seen-before avatar as a police officer-turned-gangster. The stellar cast also includes Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Andrea Jeremiah, and Shraddha Srinath, making this a must-watch for fans of crime thrillers.
Naa Saami Ranga (Jan 14th):
Na Saami Ranga
Action king Nagarjuna Akkineni is back with ‘Naa Saami Ranga’, a period action drama set in the pre-independence era. Directed by Vijay Binni, the movie boasts an ensemble cast with Allari Naresh, Raj Tarun, Ashika Ranganath, and Mirnaa Menon. Get ready for stunning visuals, sword fights, and high-octane action sequences as Nagarjuna takes on the role of a valiant warrior.
- Hanuman (Jan 12th):
Hanuman
For the superhero fans, there’s ‘Hanuman’, a unique blend of mythology and sci-fi directed by Prashanth Varma. Young star Teja Sajja steps into the iconic shoes of Hanuman in this origin story that promises to bring the legendary monkey god to life on the big screen. Brace yourself for breathtaking visuals and action sequences as Hanuman soars through the skies, battling evil and protecting mankind.
Prioritizing Telugu: Producer Dil Raju confirms the home team advantage, citing the abundance of Telugu releases and limited screens vying for the Sankranthi audience. Even dubbing films have to wait in the wings until Telugu movies have their dance in the limelight.
Tamil Hopes Dimmed: The four Tamil films mentioned – Captain Miller, Ayalaan, Merry Christmas, and Mission – originally planned to waltz into Telugu theaters alongside their Telugu counterparts. However, with the limited dance floor, their Telugu premieres might just end up as a dream sequence.
