The longstanding rivalry between the fans of the Nandamuri and Mega families in Tollywood is well-known. Whenever films featuring heroes from these two families release simultaneously, the competition is nothing short of a festival for fans. The excitement peaks when legends like Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna have their films clashing at the box office. However, in recent years, this rivalry has seen a pause, as both stars have adopted a more selective approach to their releases.
That break is set to end this Sankranti, as Tollywood gears up for another mega clash. Ram Charan’s highly anticipated Game Changer, directed by Shankar, is slated to release on January 10, 2024. Just two days later, Balakrishna’s Dakua Maharaja will hit the screens. The talk of the town in Tollywood circles is which film will dominate at the box office.
Adding to the excitement, another clash involving Nandamuri and Mega heroes is scheduled for Dussehra. The makers of Akhanda 2, starring Balakrishna and directed by Boyapati Srinu, have officially announced its worldwide release on September 25. On the same day, young Mega family hero Sai Dharam Tej’s Sambarala Etagattu will also release.
These back-to-back box office clashes have reignited the rivalry between the two powerful Tollywood families. Fans are eagerly awaiting these releases, with discussions already heating up on social media and industry forums.
With the Sankranti and Dussehra festivities serving as the backdrop, the Nandamuri and Mega families are set to deliver a cinematic treat for their fans. As the box office battle lines are drawn, it remains to be seen which films will emerge victorious in these highly anticipated showdowns.
