Everyone expected the Sankranti race to be very interesting. There are three Telugu films and two Tamil dubbing films competing this season. Among them, two films are from big heroes and the other two are dubbing films for crazy star heroes. Among Tollywood films, ‘Veera Simha Reddy’ released on 12th January while ‘Waltair Veerayya’ arrived on 13th January.
The Tamil films include Ajith’s bank robbery action thriller ‘Thunivu’ which came out as ‘Thegimpu’ on 11th January. Despite releasing on a huge release, the movie got an average response and disappointed the fans. Even ‘Varisu’ did not get a complete positive talk in Tamil. This movie is getting released in Telugu on 14th January.
‘Veera Simha Reddy’ is a complete action film with a lot of bloodshed. There is no entertainment factor in the movie and it is filled with elevations scenes and high-octane action episodes. The movie managed to get an average talk from the critics and they are mainly complaining about the second half. Even Chiru’s ‘Waltair Veerayya’ is being blamed for the lack of freshness in the script.
All the Sankranti favourites have managed to get an average talk and everyone is now looking at Santosh Sobhan for scoring a genuine hit. He is coming with ‘Kalyanam Kamaneeyam’ on 14th January. Many expected this small film to become a sandwich in between the biggies. If it manages to secure a positive talk, Santosh sobhan will end up becoming hitting a jackpot during the Sankranti season, Let us see what happens on 14th February.
