Megastar Chiranjeevi Dominates Box Office with New Record
Megastar Chiranjeevi has once again proven his undisputed rule over the box office as his latest release, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, continues its record-breaking spree. Released as a Sankranti festive treat, the action-comedy has officially crossed the ₹300 crore mark in worldwide gross collections within just nine days. This milestone makes it Chiranjeevi’s third film to enter the elite ₹200 crore club and has now surpassed the lifetime earnings of his previous hit, Waltair Veerayya.
Directed by Anil Ravipudi, the film has found immense favor with family audiences, particularly in the Telugu states. In the domestic market alone, the movie has collected over ₹171 crore net, maintaining a steady grip even on weekdays. Reports indicate that the film saw an impressive occupancy of nearly 55% this Tuesday, a rare feat for a big-budget entertainer in its second week. The festive “Sankranti wave” has played a crucial role, helping the film recover its production costs at a rapid pace.
While the current film creates a rampage, fans are also keeping a close eye on Chiranjeevi’s next ambitious project, Vishwambhara. The makers recently confirmed that this high-budget socio-fantasy epic will hit theaters in Summer 2026. The delay is attributed to the massive scale of VFX work involved, as the team aims for international quality standards. With the success of Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, the momentum for Chiranjeevi’s upcoming films has reached a new high, solidifying his legacy in Indian cinema.
