*Laila* evolves from a quiet buzz to a blockbuster sensation at the ticket counters.

Veteran Tollywood Collection actor Venkatesh's newest film, *Sankranthiki Vasthunnam*, is reaping incredible success at the international box office. Analysts anticipate a massive rise in Saturday's sales, and with the Republic Day weekend coming up, the expectations are high for even further growth. Produced by Dil Raju and Shirish, this entertaining crime comedy is complemented by a soundtrack from Bheems Ceciroleo. The film has flourished in the Ceded region, where it has racked up an outstanding Rs 17.23 crore (including GST) over the last 11 days. The film is forecasted to finish with around Rs 20 crore from the Ceded region alone by the time its run ends. Closing in on a impressive Rs 400 crore, the film has achieved its position as the top-performing project of Venkatesh's illustrious career. *Sankranthiki Vasthunnam* stars Aishwarya Rajesh and Meenakshi Chaudhary in major roles, with Anil Ravipudi taking the helm as director.
