Venkatesh Daggubati’s Sankranthiki Vasthunam is all set to take a different route after its smashing box office run! While most films opt for a quick OTT release, this Anil Ravipudi directorial is skipping digital platforms entirely and heading straight to television.
Zee Telugu made the big announcement, writing, “Get ready to relive the Sankranthi vibe again! #SankranthikiVasthunnam coming soon on #ZeeTelugu.” This move is a rare one in the industry, as most films follow a theater-to-OTT-to-TV pattern. But with Sankranthiki Vasthunam emerging as the highest-grossing Telugu film of the year, the makers seem confident that a direct TV release will keep the buzz alive.
The film, which hit theaters on January 14, 2025, raked in a whopping ₹225-300 crore worldwide. Featuring a stellar cast including Meenakshi Chaudhary, Aishwarya Rajesh, and Srinivasa Reddy, the action-comedy was shot across picturesque locations like Rajahmundry, Hyderabad, and Dehradun.
And here’s the real treat—Venkatesh has officially confirmed a sequel! Get ready for Sankranthiki Vasthunam 2, slated for a Pongal 2027 release. Fans, mark your calendars!
