Sankranthiki Vasthunam is not just a hit; it is rewriting box office history, much to the shock and surprise of trade analysts.
In several regions, the film is outperforming records previously set by Baahubali and RRR, despite maintaining standard ticket prices.
The top five highest share collected in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana on their fifth day are as follows:
RRR – ₹13.63 crore
Sankranthiki Vasthunam – ₹12.75 crore
Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo – ₹11.43 crore
Baahubali 2 – ₹11.35 crore
KALKI 2898 AD – ₹10.86 crore
These films have dominated the regional box office with their impressive day-five collections.
Industry experts speculate that if Sankranthiki Vasthunam continues its strong performance for another week, it could potentially break all existing records set by younger stars and solidify Venkatesh's position at the top of the charts.
