Waltair Veerayya, Veera Simha Reddy, and other Sankranti releases lock OTT platforms

After a gap of three years, the Sankranti festive season was graced by much-awaited star-studded films, leaving cinephiles and fans overjoyed. Taking us all on a trip to our childhood days, the box office witnessed the clash of the yesteryear archrivals, Megastar Chiranjeevi and Nandamuri Balakrishna. While the former made a grand comeback with KS Ravindra’s Waltair Veerayya, the latter continued his hit streak with Veera Simha Reddy, directed by Gopichand Malineni.

Adding fuel to this fire, Kollywood biggies Vijay and Ajith locked horns with Varisu (Vaarasudu in Telugu) and Thunivu (Thegimpu in Telugu) and lit up the theatres in Tamil Nadu. The Telugu dubbed versions of these two fared decently in the Telugu states as well.
