Sankranthiki Vasthunam, starring Venkatesh in the lead role, emerged as a big blockbuster at the box office.

It is expected to wind its theatrical run at Rs 250 crore mark worldwide.

This is a record feat for Venkatesh as no one other than Chiranjeevi gave a Rs 200 crore grosser among the Senior actors in the Tollywood film industry.

Anil Ravipudi is next set to direct Megastar Chiranjeevi. The yet-untitled movie, which is speculated to be made on a controlled budget, is expected to repeat the blockbuster success of Sankranthiki Vasthunnam at the box office.
