Upcoming Sankranthi season will be witnessing the releases of some interesting projects in addition to Power Star Pawan Kalyan's Agnyaathavaasi. As we know, Agnyaathavaasi's release date was locked to January 10.
On the other hand, Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna's Jai Simha is also being planned for Sankranthi season. January 12 has been zeroed for the film's release. And now, the makers of Mass Maharaj Ravi Teja's Touch Chesie Choodu have confirmed their film's release on January 13, which is a day next to Jai Simha's release. Tamil star hero Suriya's Gang is also slated for Sankranthi season.
Even though it broadly appears to be the war among four films, Agnyaathavaasi will surely be separated from the above list given its humongous release. In US alone the film is likely to release in 500 screens. As it being a dubbed film Suriya's Gang should also be treated a separate category film.
All in all, Ravi Teja seems to have targeted Jai Simha with Touch Chesi Choodu. Ravi Teja's previous film Raja the Great stood as a big hit for Ravi Teja. On the other hand, Balakrishna struggled with the super flop Paisa Vasool. At this juncture, Jai Simha needs to score a huge hit irrespective of Touch Chesi Choodu and other biggies releases during the Sankranthi.
