Megastar Chiranjeevi’s latest Sankranthi 2026 release, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, has set the box office ablaze, officially breaching the ₹250 crore mark worldwide.
Directed by Anil Ravipudi, the action-comedy has become a massive festive blockbuster, capitalising on the holiday surge with a dominant performance. As the Sankranti season concludes today, theaters are reporting an extraordinary occupancy rate exceeding 80%, particularly in the Telugu states.
Following a record-breaking Saturday that saw sold-out shows across major cities, the film’s steady momentum has industry experts predicting a swift entry into the ₹300 crore club.
The film’s success bolstered by strong family appeal and Chiranjeevi’s vintage energy marks one of the biggest Sankranthi wins in recent years.
With a strong international run alongside its domestic dominance, Chiranjeevi is once again proving why he is the undisputed king of the festive box office.
