Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu Box Office: Chiranjeevi's Action Comedy Scripts Telugu Film History

Hyderabad, January 26 - Megastar Chiranjeevi has once again proved his unparalleled box office pull as Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu continues its excellent run. The Sankranti 2026 release has not only emerged as a massive commercial success but has now scripted history in Telugu cinema with its superb worldwide performance.

After an excellent first week and sustained collections thereafter, Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu has surpassed Allu Arjun's Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, which had collected 269+ crore worldwide, to become the biggest non–Pan India Telugu film of all time. This milestone underlines the film’s phenomenal acceptance among family audiences.

The Anil Ravipudi-directed action comedy benefited immensely from the festive Sankranti window, strong word of mouth, and Chiranjeevi's vintage entertainer appeal. Despite being a straight Telugu release without a nationwide Pan-India push, the film has delivered blockbuster numbers across Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and North America, showcasing its appeal.

Mana Shankara has grossed approximately 228 crores in India and 42 crores overseas for the worldwide cume total of around 270 crores gross in 14 days. It already became the biggest grosser for the megastar over the second weekend and now has further cemented its dominance as the biggest non-Pan India Telugu blockbuster.

The film is now heading steadily towards the coveted 300 crore worldwide gross milestone. With steady holds on weekdays and strong weekend spikes, trade circles are confident that Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu will enter the 300 crore club in the coming days, creating yet another landmark for the legendary actor.

For Telugu cinema, the success stands as a reminder that a well-made, rooted entertainer can still achieve historic numbers without relying on multi-language Pan-India strategies. As Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu marches towards the 300 crore worldwide gross milestone, it continues to redefine benchmarks and set new standards for non–Pan India Telugu films at the global box office.
