There were reports that the producers of “Thandel” were planning to release the movie during Sankranthi to compete with Ram Charan’s “Game Changer." However, they have now changed their minds.
According to inside sources, the team is already exploring alternative release dates. They are considering releasing the film around Republic Day instead of Sankranthi 2025.
Currently, three major Telugu films are slated for the festival: Nandamuri Balakrishna’s “NBK 109," Ram Charan’s “Game Changer,” and Venkatesh’s “Sankranthiki Vosthunnamu."
Given the intense competition, releasing Naga Chaitanya’s film alongside them seems impractical.
As a result, the producers are now eyeing either January 26 or Valentine’s Day for the release.
