Chiranjeevi’s film dominates overseas as well

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s “Mana Shankara VaraPrasad Garu”, directed by Anil Ravipudi, is creating sensational box-office records. Released during Sankranti, the film collected a massive ₹292 crore in its first week, making it the first regional film to achieve such collections within a week, according to the producers.

With strong demand from the premieres onwards, the film continues its impressive run. On its seventh day (January 18), it earned ₹31 crore, becoming the highest seventh-day collection for a Telugu film in the Telugu states. The movie is also performing well overseas, collecting $2.96 million in North America and moving closer to the $3 million club, a milestone in Chiranjeevi’s career. Director Anil Ravipudi also achieved a rare feat by delivering back to back ₹200 crore films in two consecutive years.
