Chiranjeevi facing a daunting task. Mega Star Chiranjeevi enjoys immense craze but of late, he is slowing down much to the disappointment of mega fans and movie lovers. While his contemporaries Natasimha Balakrishna with Akhanda, Bhagavanth Kesari, Daaku Maharaj and Victory Venkatesh F3, Sankrantiki Vasthunnam are roaring at the box office, the silence from the makers of his upcoming projects Vishwambhara and others are leaving everyone dumbstruck.
Chiranjeevi scored a hit with Waltair Veerayya but it got washed out due to Bholaa Shankar and though Vishwambhara announcement excited all, the film's multiple delays robbed off all the excitement. Even mega fans are not having confidence as the VFX turned out to be substandard.
Now, all eyes are on his upcoming project with Anil Ravipudi. Anil Ravipudi is on high scoring hits like Bhagavanth Kesari and Sankrantiki Vasthunnam. He already generated interest on the project by roping in Lady Superstar Nayanthara and even making her promote the film for the first time in the announcement video.
The film also features Victory Venkatesh in a powerful cameo. Now all eyes are on how much collections the film will rake at the box office. This is because Anil Ravipudi with Venkatesh and making him romance two hot beauties Aishwarya Rajesh and Meenakshi Chaudhary in Sankrantiki Vasthunnam got more than Rs 300crs at the box office.
With Venkatesh coming singlehandedly during Sankranti in 2025 with Sankranthi Vasthunnam and powering his way with Rs 300crs at the box office, blasting all box office records, considering the craze for Mega Star Chiranjeevi, powerful performer Nayanthara and the special appearance of Victory Venkatesh, the film should collect more than double the amount at the box office.
The question is can Mega Star Chiranjeevi use his mega craze at the box office and create a sensation during Sankranti in 2026 with the tilm touted to be titled Sankranti Allullu? Chiranjeevi faces a daunting challenge and challenges are not new for Mega Star and he can challenge himself to leave all stunned and set a new trend.
