Anaganaga Oka Raju exits Sankranthi race with shocking shift?

This Sankranthi lineup is honestly wild. Ravi Teja, Prabhas, Chiranjeevi, Vijay, everyone showed up at once. It’s like a festival inside a festival. And right in the middle of this traffic jam was Anaganaga Oka Raju, the fun little entertainer with Naveen Polishetty and Meenakshi Chaudhary. But yeah, the team quietly stepped out. No drama. Just a smart, silent exit.

The film was earlier locked for January 14, but let’s be real, this year’s competition is too heavy. Makers seem to have figured it’s better not to squeeze into a weekend where every big star is roaring for attention. So they’re now considering January 23 or maybe the Republic Day weekend. That last week of January looks pretty empty, almost peaceful. No big releases waiting to swallow smaller films. Honestly, good decision.

There’s already a cool vibe around the movie. Mickey J. Meyer’s music, Naveen Polishetty’s comic timing, that breezy teaser, people genuinely liked what they saw. It feels like a family entertainer that needs space to breathe, not a wrestling match with four massive releases.

No official announcement yet, but the inside buzz is strong. If things go as expected, Anaganaga Oka Raju might skip the Sankranthi storm and land in a calmer, sweeter slot, where folks can actually sit back and enjoy it without the festival madness.
