Sankranthiki Vasthunnam is Venkatesh's latest film, which has surprised trade experts with its impressive performance at the box office. Despite nearing its 20-day mark, the film continues to earn at least Rs 2 crore daily since its release. This is unprecedented, and the latest update is that Sankranthiki Vasthunnam has crossed the coveted Rs 300 crore mark, setting a new record.

No regional film from the South has ever reached Rs 300 crore without being dubbed into other languages, making Sankranthiki Vasthunnam the first to achieve this milestone. This reflects the film’s massive success and the audience's love for it. On its 19th day, Sankranthiki Vasthunnam earned Rs 3 crore worldwide. Trade analysts predict that Sunday’s numbers will be even higher.

With no other major releases in theaters, family audiences are turning up in large numbers to watch the film. The makers, led by producer Dil Raju, have also done a great job of keeping the film in the news, which has contributed to its blockbuster success.

Speaking at the Sankranthiki Vasthunnam distributors' success meet, Dil Raju got a bit emotional and admitted that he prioritized big combinations over strong content and learned a hard lesson from Game Changer’s failure.
