Top Telugu movies to watch out for this Christmas 2024
This year’s Christmas season promises to be an exciting time for Telugu cinema lovers, with several films gearing up for release. While Ram Charan’s much-anticipated Game Changer was expected to be the highlight of the season, its release has been pushed to January 2025. This change has created an opportunity for other films to shine. Let’s look at some of the top Telugu movies set to release during Christmas 2024.
Thandel
One of the most talked-about films this Christmas season is Thandel, starring Naga Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi. The movie, directed by Chandoo Mondeti, is slated to hit theaters on December 20, 2024. It is based on a real-life incident from 2018 when fishermen from Srikakulam, Andhra Pradesh, unintentionally crossed into Pakistani waters and were detained.
Naga Chaitanya revealed that he met with these fishermen to understand their hardships and struggles. The film will also explore a touching love story inspired by one of the fishermen’s personal experiences. This emotional aspect, coupled with the real-life backdrop, has already generated significant buzz among moviegoers.
Robinhood
Nithiin’s Robinhood is another film releasing on December 20, and it’s already creating a lot of excitement. Directed by Venky Kudumula, the film stars Nithiin alongside Sreeleela. Robinhood features a unique plot where Nithiin’s character plays a thief with a twist—he believes that all Indians are his family, and he steals only from the wealthy to help those in need.
The premise of the film has sparked widespread interest on social media, and the clash with Thandel at the box office is one of the most anticipated showdowns this holiday season. With its intriguing story and engaging performances, Robinhood is expected to be a crowd-puller.
Sarangapani Jathakam
Priyadarshi’s Sarangapani Jathakam is another film scheduled for release on December 20, 2024. Directed by Mohanakrishna Indraganti, the movie is described as a comedy that will leave audiences in splits. Priyadarshi plays the role of an astrologer who questions whether our futures are written in the stars or shaped by our own actions.
While not much more is known about the plot, the film’s humorous take on astrology and destiny has intrigued viewers. As one of the few comedies releasing during the holiday season, Sarangapani Jathakam is expected to offer a refreshing change of pace.
Magic
Rounding out the list of top releases this Christmas is Magic, directed by Gowtham Tinnanuri, who is known for the critically acclaimed Jersey. This film, starring Sara Arjun, is a musical drama set to release on December 21 in both Telugu and Tamil languages.
The soundtrack, composed by Anirudh Ravichander, has already garnered attention, and expectations are high for this unique, emotionally driven story. Produced by Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas, Magic is poised to make a mark this holiday season with its beautiful blend of music and storytelling.
