From Vishwambhara to HanuMan sequel, here is the list of Telugu biggies to release during Sankranthi 2025

Sankranthi is one of the most lucrative seasons for films to release in Tollywood. Every year there are close to four or five films that get released between the dates of January 12-15 which marks the festive weekend and is celebrated on a grand note in Telugu states.

There is always competition for biggies to lock the release dates of their films during this season and in 2024, we saw as many as four films, HanuMan, Naa Saami Ranga, Saindhav, and Guntur Kaaram fighting it out at the box office.

Seeing the way these films have performed, there is a massive fight for the year 2025 already. A few films have already been confirmed for the Sankranthi 2025 and let's look at the projects set to release during this time.
