The upcoming Sankranthi season is shaping up to be significant for Venkatesh Daggubati. He is making his return to cinemas with a film featuring Chiranjeevi and directed by Anil Ravipudi. This movie is slated for release during the festive period, and expectations are considerable.

Looking ahead, Venkatesh has a packed schedule for 2026, with three films ready for release. This marks one of the most active periods in his career recently. Following favorable reactions to his recent movies, Venky has chosen projects that combine his star appeal with compelling stories.

Among these, ‘Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu’ stands out as a prominent release, led by Megastar Chiranjeevi. Venkatesh has finished filming his part, portraying an extended and significant character. This movie is set to arrive in theaters on January 12, 2026, during the Sankranthi season, generating considerable anticipation for the unique pairing of these two actors.

Additionally, Venkatesh is collaborating with director Trivikram Srinivas on ‘Adarsha Kutumbam’. This project is described as a wholesome family entertainer, designed to highlight Venky’s strengths. Filming is currently underway, with the creators targeting a summer 2026 debut.

Further adding to the lineup, Venkatesh will return to his memorable character in the Telugu adaptation of ‘Drishyam 3’. The Malayalam version is currently in production, and the Telugu film is anticipated to begin filming shortly, also aiming for a 2026 release. These three movies suggest 2026 will be a remarkable year for fans of Victory Venkatesh.
