Sankranti is one of the hottest seasons every star dreams of having his release at least once, if possible, every year. It is such a big season that even average or cringe films with stars become hits or superhits.
Now the latest rumor of Geetha Arts’ Thandel eyeing Sankranti 2025 has instantly upset a section of mega fans, as Ram Charan’s Game Changer has been pushed from Christmas 2024 to Sankranti 2025 to avoid the heat of Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2.

Unlike Pushpa 2, Thandel has Naga Chaitanya, a non-Tier 1 star, as the lead. Still, the buzz the film is carrying is a bother for others.
The backdrop of Thandel and the casting of Naga Chaitanya, Sai Pallavi, and director Chandoo Mondeti have always been seen as a silent threat to clash with this film.

A section of mega fans who are already upset with the delays of Game Changer and the national hype of Pushpa 2 at the same time is now directing their attention to Allu Aravind, the producer of Thandel.
They call him a betrayer of Chiru, though the news is not official.

On the other hand, Sankranti is a season that can easily accommodate multiple films, and Thandel isn’t a project from Rajamouli that would warrant fear or demand a solo release.
Why does a film with Ram Charan post-RRR and a pan-India director like Shankar need to worry about Naga Chaitanya’s Thandel?
But fans, being fans, have their emotional stress over everything.
