Every year there will be a flurry of movies during the Sankranti season. There will be sure shot winners and even the movie with bad talk can manage to do good business. This is why every star hero, director and producer feels it as a sentiment to release it during the Sankranti season. They go above and beyond to make sure that it gets involved in the Sankranti race.

As we know, there are four releases during the Sankranti season in Tollywood. Superstar Mahesh Babu's 'Guntur Karam', Teja Sajja's 'Hanu-Man', Venkatesh's 'Saindhav' and Nagarjuna's 'Naa Saami Ranga' competed in the race and it is 'Hanu-Man' who emerged as the winner. It grossed over 300 crores at the box office.

Looking at the success and profits, it is 'Naa Sami Ranga' which stands in the second place. 'Guntur Karam' and 'Saindhav' followed it. These four movies minted a sum of 535 crores in theatres and it is a massive record. It ended up being the biggest Sankranti season ever. While 'Hanu-Man' collected over 300 crores, 'Guntur Karam' grossed 180 crores.

'Naa Saami Ranga' brought a gross of 55 crores worldwide. No other Sankranti season has generated this much money before. In 2020, the season collected over 500 crores gross with movies like 'Ala Vaikunthapuramlo' and 'Sarileru Neekevvaru'. 2024 broke the records set by 2020 and it is the biggest money-spinning Pongal season in Tollywood till date.
