Meenakshi Chaudhary Eyes Tollywood Stardom with ‘Sankranthiki Vasthunnam’ Release
After a roller-coaster year in 2024, the actress anticipates a career-defining role in Anil Ravipudi’s upcoming family entertainer.
Meenakshi Chaudhary’s journey in Tollywood has been marked by both triumphs and setbacks. In 2024, she featured in five films, the highest number of releases for any prominent Tollywood actress that year. Among these, the heist thriller ‘Lucky Bhaskar’ emerged as a significant success, providing a much-needed boost to her career.
However, not all her projects met expectations. ‘Guntur Kaaram,’ starring Mahesh Babu, was anticipated to be a turning point, especially with director Trivikram Srinivas’s reputation for crafting impactful female roles. Unfortunately, the film underperformed, and Meenakshi’s role did not garner the recognition she had hoped for.
Subsequent releases like ‘GOAT,’ ‘Matka,’ and ‘Mechanic Rocky’ also failed to make a significant impact at the box office.
Despite these challenges, Meenakshi remains optimistic about her upcoming film, ‘Sankranthiki Vasthunnam,’ directed by Anil Ravipudi. In this family entertainer, she portrays a comedic role, showcasing her versatility and comic timing. The film, which also stars Victory Venkatesh and Aishwarya Rajesh, is slated for release on January 14, 2025, coinciding with the Sankranti festival.
The project is generating positive buzz, and Meenakshi is hopeful that it will mark a significant milestone in her Tollywood career. As she continues to navigate the industry’s highs and lows, her determination to secure a prominent place in Telugu cinema remains unwavering.
