There is speculation that producer Allu Aravind is planning to release "Thandel" during Sankranthi 2025.
Initially, Allu Aravind had scheduled the film's release for December 20. However, when Dil Raju announced the release of "Game Changer" for Christmas 2024, Aravind postponed the release.
Now, with Dil Raju postponing "Game Changer" to Pongal 2025, Allu Aravind has reportedly decided to compete by releasing "Thandel" during the same festival season, setting the stage for a potential clash.
Some sources suggest that the Allu camp is gearing up to face Ram Charan directly.
Others believe that Allu Aravind, upset by Dil Raju's change in plans, is deliberately positioning "Thandel" for Sankranthi as a challenge.
This potential clash could be awkward for Naga Chaitanya, who has a good relationship with both Ram Charan and the Mega family.
He may prefer not to go head-to-head with Charan. Only time will tell how the situation will unfold.
