TollywoodThere are three movies releasing this Sankranti, including Rrr, Bheemla Nayak and Radhe Shyam.Rajeswari ParasaIn the Telugu states, it’s become a yearly ritual to watch a box-office clash take place during Sankranti, the first festival of the year. However, earlier this year, theatres were bare due to the coronavirus pandemic that kept them shut for months. In 2022, big budget movies that were delayed due to Covid-19 are hoping for major returns, and have locked their release dates for the festival season in the state’s roughly 1,800 theatres. For the upcoming Sankranti season, three big movies — Rrr, Bheemla Nayak and Radhe Shyam — are going head to head at the box-office in the Telugu states. Theatre owners are banking on these releases to bring audiences back to the movies in a big way as they hope to recover some of the major losses experienced since March 2020. The nationwide lockdown shuttered theatres across the country.
