Did you catch all three? 🎟️🍿

However, here is a story.

Veera Simha Reddy was the first major release of the season. Directed by Gopichand Malineni (known for Krack and Jai Simha ), this film was designed as a quintessential "factionist" family drama. Balakrishna played a dual role—a fierce, violent village lord in the past and his docile, NRI son in the present. The film relied heavily on Balakrishna’s raw screen presence, high-voltage action sequences, and emotional family sentiments. Sankranthi Release Telugu Movies 2023
