Each producer asserts their claim as the first to announce the release date, creating a delicate situation. Dil Raju, in response to the spirited discussion, assured the producers that a decision on the matter will be reached in the coming week.

The President of the Film Chamber, Dil Raju, has disclosed that a definitive decision regarding the release of films during Sankranti will be made next week, leaving the industry and fans in suspense about the fate of these highly anticipated cinematic offerings.

As the Sankranti season approaches, characterized by festive fervor and heightened expectations, top banners, producers, and stars are unwilling to forgo the opportunity presented by this auspicious time.
