Sankranthi: Mahesh First, Allu Arjun Next?

The hullabaloo surrounding Sankranthi releases is going to end soon. As per inside sources, Mahesh Babu has agreed to release his Sarileru Neekevvaru, a day prior to Allu Arjun and Trivikram's Ala Vaikunthapurrammuloo. While the original plan is that both the makers of Allu Arjun and Mahesh Babu have locked Jan 12, 2020 as the release date, after a lot of pressure from distributors, film trade and fans, finally, the top steers seem to have budged.

As per fresh reports, Mahesh Babu and Anil Ravipudi's Sarileru Neekevvaru would hit the screens on Jan 11, 2020 i.e a day prior to Allu Arjun's film. Allu Arjun film is going to release on the same day as per the initial announcement i.e Jan 12, 2020.

Meanwhile, Rajinikanth's Darbar would release on Jan 10, 2020 in Telugu and Tamil simultaneously which is a day prior to Mahesh's film. And Nandamuri Kalyan Ram's Entha Manchivaadavuraa would release as per schedule i.e Jan 15, 2020. And Mass Maharaj Ravi Teja's Disco Raja is slated for Jan 24, 2020 release. With this, the dilemma surrounding the big releases of Jan is almost sorted. Now, it needs to be seen who would come out with flying colours.
