Sankranti 2023: Here are 5 Telugu films gearing up for the biggest box office clash

Hyderabad: This Pongal is going to be a feast for movie buffs with several films in the pipeline. Though this would affect opening day collections and theatre availability, it looks like no star hero is ready to back out of the race.

Four superstars of the south—Balakrishna, Chiranjeevi, Prabhas, and Thalapathy Vijay—are prepping to lock horns this Sankranthi. Interestingly, a young hero, Akhil, has also joined the "Biggest Clash" ever. Here are the movies that will clash at the box office on Sankranti 2023.

Veera Simha Reddy

Gopichand Malineni, who is directing Nandamuri Balakrishna's upcoming film 'Veera Simha Reddy', confirmed last Friday that the fans are going to have a blast this Sankranthi in the theatres.

A glimpse of the film was unveiled recently and Balayya's fans are super excited about the film. Shruti Haasan is playing the leading lady in this film, and she is collaborating with Balakrishna for the first time.

Balakrishna's last film was 'Akhanda' which released in December last year. He is currently hosting 'Unstoppable with NBK' on Aha.

Waltair Veerayya

Megastar Chiranjeevi's 154th film is also going to hit the screens on Sankranthi. The title teaser released on 24 October. Though the release dates of 'Waltair Veerayya' and 'Veera Simha Reddy' may have a gap of one or two days, this is going to be one epic clash between Chiru and Balayya after a long time.

After the debacle of 'Acharya', 'Godfather' did better at the box office. And this time, fans want this film to do a lot better and bring the vintage Chiranjeevi back.

Adipurush

Meanwhile, Prabhas' 'Adipurush' is the most-awaited film of this bunch. This mythological drama is one of the most anticipated pan-India films directed by Om Raut. It is also going to hit the screens in Pongal 2023.

'Radhe Shyam' and 'Saaho' were disasters at the box office and Prabhas' fans are eagerly waiting for a good movie from the actor. All eyes are on 'Adipurush' now. The film has Krithi Sanon playing Sita and Saif Ali Khan playing Ravanasura.

Varasudu

Tamil actor Vijay Thalapathy's much-awaited Telugu debut film 'Vaarasudu' completed shooting recently and is currently under post-production. Directed by Vamsi Paidipally, the film has Rashmika Mandanna as the leading lady.

The film will release at the Tamil box office as 'Varisu'. It is produced by leading filmmakers Dil Raju and Shirish under their production house Sri Venkateswara Creations. The film's promotions will kick-start next month.

On the auspicious occasion of Diwali, the makers announced that the film will hit the screens on Sankranthi 2023.

Prabhu, Sarath Kumar, Prakash Raj, Jayasudha, Srikanth, Shaam, Yogi Babu, Sangeetha, and Samyuktha are the other prominent cast members.

Agent

Makers of Akhil Akkineni's 'Agent' unveiled the release date poster on 24 October on the occasion of Diwali. The film will hit theatres on Pongal 2023.

Sharing the release date poster, Akhil wrote, "Get caught upon all the ACTION #Agent Arriving in theatres WorldWide this SANKRANTHI 2023."

Akhil looked terrific in the new poster, sporting a blue-striped suit, full beard, and a curly short bob hairstyle.

Helmed by Surender Reddy, the film is produced by Rambramham Sunkara, Ajay Sunkara, and Pathi Deepa Reddy under the AK Entertainments and Surender Cinema banners.

These five movies have officially announced their release dates for Sankranthi 2023. This will be the biggest clash ever in Tollywood, and we have to wait and watch what will be the outcome of this clash.
