Chiranjeevi's Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, a family comedy released during Sankranti 2026, has emerged as the only major success among four big Telugu releases. The film, featuring an ensemble cast including Nayanthara and Daggubati Venkatesh, has crossed Rs 171 crore net in India and over Rs 300 crore gross worldwide within nine days. Despite a typical post-opening dip and reduced screens, it surpassed the breakeven point against a Rs 200 crore budget, outperforming other high-budget films released simultaneously.
