As the festive season approaches, all eyes are on Sankranthiki Vasthunam, a triangular crime comedy directed by Anil Ravipudi and starring Victory Venkatesh. Scheduled for a January 14 release, the film promises a mix of humor, action, and family-friendly entertainment. Produced by Dil Raju and Shirish under Sri Venkateswara Creations, the film also stars Meenaakshi Chaudhary and Aishwarya Rajesh in lead roles.

The story revolves around an ex-cop, played by Venkatesh, who finds himself in a comedic conundrum as he navigates a mission while handling his wife (Aishwarya Rajesh) and ex-girlfriend (Meenaakshi Chaudhary).

Talking about doing a comedy film for the first time, Meenaakshi said, "This is my first comedy film, and playing a cop in this space is both challenging and exciting."

She added, "I've always wanted to explore comedy, and this role gave me the perfect opportunity to step out of my comfort zone."
