The Sankranthi season, long dominated by hero-driven films, is witnessing a shift in 2026 as leading ladies take center stage. With multiple big-ticket releases slated for the festive period, this year serves as a critical checkpoint for several actresses aiming to consolidate, revive, or recalibrate their careers.
Nidhhi Agerwal and Malavika Mohanan face high stakes with Prabhas’s Raja Saab, especially after past setbacks. Similarly, Nayanthara’s presence in Chiranjeevi’s Mana Shankara Varaprasad Gaaru is pivotal following a lull since Jawan. Ashika Ranganath and Dimple Hayathi, starring opposite Ravi Teja in Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi, also navigate a decisive phase as they seek theatrical success.
For Samyuktha Menon, Nari Nari represents an opportunity to convert critical acclaim into commercial wins, while Meenakshi Chaudhary aims to replicate her previous Sankranthi success with Naveen Polishetty’s Anaganaga Oka Raju. Even dubbed films carry weight, with Pooja Hegde (Jana Nayakudu) and Sreeleela (Parashakti) striving to overcome recent box office setbacks.
The 2026 festive lineup underscores that success this Sankranthi season is not just about heroes—it’s equally about how leading ladies perform, making it a landmark moment for Telugu cinema.
