As the eagerly awaited Sankranti festival approaches on January 12th, 2024, Tollywood is gearing up for an epic clash between two highly anticipated films – Mahesh Babu’s Guntur Kaaram and Teja Sajja’s Hanuman. While Mahesh Babu’s stardom can traditionally dictate the film openings and set the box office on fire, on the other end of the spectrum, the relatively smaller film Hanuman is making waves with its surprising buzz. The clash is not merely about star power but also about the clash of genres and fan bases, making it an intriguing battle at the box office.
Despite the excitement surrounding both films, some fans and industry insiders are expressing discontent over Hanuman’s decision to clash with Guntur Kaaram. The concern is that the clash might impact the film’s opening day collections, particularly as Hanuman secures a substantial number of theaters on January 12th, 2024. In an attempt to mitigate the clash, producer Dil Raju engaged in discussions with the Hanuman team, proposing a shift in release date to January 11th. However, reports suggest that negotiations did not yield a positive outcome, and Hanuman remains steadfast in sticking to its original release date.
Meanwhile, the makers of Guntur Kaaram seem resolute in their decision to face off against Hanuman on Sankranti 2024. Today, they reaffirmed their commitment with a new poster, reiterating that Guntur Kaaram will hit the screens on the already announced date, January 12th, 2024. With both films refusing to back down, it appears that movie enthusiasts are in for a double treat as they witness the clash of these cinematic titans on the festive occasion. The battle at the box office promises to be intense, with fans eagerly awaiting the outcome of this clash between Mahesh Babu’s star power and the rising buzz around Teja Sajja’s Hanuman.
