EXCLUSIVE: Nagarjuna and Sharwanand out of Sankranthi Race

Megastar Chiranjeevi with his Prestigious 150th film, Khaidi No 150 and Nandamuri Balakrishna with his Landmark 100th film, Gautamiputra Satakarni are brandishing swords at the Sankranthi Box Office. Both the films are landmark films for the respective actors and the battle has already begun for maximum number of screens.

We are told that Dil Raju is planning to out his Shatamanam Bhavathi from Sankranthi Race if both the films make up for Sankranthi. Nagarjuna's devotional venture, Om Namo Venkateshaya may be pushed to February 9th from its earlier Sankranthi Release Plan. The makers want the devotional film to be released with no competition.

Also Nagarjuna do not want to rush into the film shoot for Festival release. Expectations and hype on the film are huge as Nagarjuna and Raghavendra Rao previously delivered devotional classics like Annamayya, Shirdi Sai and Sri Ramadasu. A Mahesh Reddy who produced Nagarjuna's Shirdi Sai is producing this film under his AMR Sai Krupa Entertainments banner. Keeravani is the music composer.
