The hilarious crime comedy Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, starring Venkatesh, Aishwarya Rajesh, and Meenakshi Chaudhary, has achieved a monumental milestone. Directed by Anil Ravipudi and produced by Dil Raju, the film has stormed past the ₹100 crore mark within just three days of its release.
Released on January 14 as a Sankranthi festive treat, the movie garnered a phenomenal ₹106 crore share globally in its opening weekend. Surpassing expectations, it added ₹29 crore on Thursday alone and is now eyeing the ₹150 crore milestone by the end of its first weekend. The film has also clocked over 1.5 million ticket sales on BookMyShow, further cementing its blockbuster status.
In North America, Sankranthiki Vasthunnam smashed past the $1 million mark, becoming the fastest film in Venkatesh’s career to achieve this feat. The film’s remarkable run has set it on course to potentially enter the ₹200 crore club in its full run, provided it maintains its momentum in the coming week.
The film’s massive success is attributed to Anil Ravipudi’s signature family-friendly entertainment, stellar performances by the lead cast, and Bheems Ceciroleo’s chart-topping soundtrack. Sankranthiki Vasthunnam has undeniably become the crowd favorite this Sankranthi season, delivering a perfect festive treat for moviegoers.
