Balayya in the Sankranthi ring?

Natasimham Balakrishna's aggressiveness in the Sankranthi race is not as usual as in other seasons. Balayya is credited with receiving super duper hits in the Sankranthi seasons. Balakrishna, who has already competed in the Sankranthi slot dozens of times, is now going to enter the Sankranthi race once again.

Balakrishna's most awaited 'Akhanda 2' is scheduled to release for Dussehra. However, as the shooting is still being delayed, it is said that it will be difficult to complete the film by that time. That is why Pawan Kalyan's 'OG' has been fixed for Dussehra. In this context, the latest industry talk is that 'Akhanda 2' has been shifted to the Sankranthi race.

If that happens, the legendary clash in the upcoming Sankranthi race will once again be confirmed. It will be a Sankranthi war between Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna once again. These senior heroes, who have been continuing the Star Wars for decades, have been competing at the box office many times, but they have faced each other nine times so far during the Sankranthi season.

The release date of Chiranjeevi's film directed by Anil Ravipudi has been finalized for the upcoming Sankranthi season. The latest hit 'Mega 157' is definitely coming for Sankranthi. Now if Balayya's 'Akhanda 2' also comes for Sankranthi, the 2026 Sankranthi season is going to be something special.

On the other hand, Vijay's 'Jananayagan' from Tamil has also fixed its release date in the Pongal race. It is known that Chiru's 'Waltair Veerayya' and Balayya's 'Veerasimha Reddy' were released in the 2023 Sankranthi season, along with Vijay's 'Varasudu'. That is, these three are going to face each other once again in the 2026 Sankranthi season.
