The Festive season of Sankranthi has ended and there is still one question pending in the hearts of the Telugu audience and the fans. Who is the Sankranthi winner?
Box office wise, Chiranjeevi clearly has the advantage as Khaidi No.150 has been going berserk at the ticket counter and has recorded around 75 crores in the first week wiping out many of the Non-Baahubali records.
Coming to Balakrishna, Gautamiputra Satakarni has also become the all-time highest grosser for Balakrishna in the very first week beating Legend full run business in just 7 days.
When it comes to Return on Investment(ROI), GPSK is already in profits as it was sold for around 46 crores Worldwide. Khaidi No.150, on the other hand, was sold for 86cr and still needs few more days to get into profits.
Overall, this has been an excellent Sankranthi for movie goers and the distributors as all three movies including Satamanam Bhavati, have been profitable ventures. So, it’s pretty difficult for us to pick a winner among the two heavyweights, but this is how we will put it.
Box office winner: Khaidi No.150
ROI winner: Gautamiputra Satakarni
Real winner: Audience and Telugu cinema
