The film “Man Shankara Varaprasad Garu,” featuring the legendary actor Chiranjeevi, has made headlines by setting an all-time industry record in just 25 days since its release. Directed by Anil Ravipudi, the movie hit theaters as a Sankranti gift on January 12 and quickly garnered a hit talk among audiences, contributing to its remarkable box office performance.
In a recent announcement, it was revealed that the film has amassed a staggering gross of ₹375 crores within its first 25 days. This achievement marks a significant milestone, especially as it collected ₹292 crores in its opening week alone. “Man Shankara Varaprasad Garu” has now established itself as the highest-grossing regional film to achieve such figures in its initial week, showcasing the immense popularity of the film within the Telugu-speaking audience.
Prior to this film, the record for the highest collections during Sankranti was held by “Sankranti Ki Vastunnam,” which earned ₹300 crores. Other notable films like “Attarintiki Daredi,” “Guntur Kaaram,” “Sarkaru Vaari Paata,” and “Maharshi” have also performed well, but they did not reach the same financial heights as “Man Shankara Varaprasad Garu.” This establishes a new benchmark for regional films released in the Telugu language, highlighting the growing influence and box office potential of Telugu cinema.
In addition to its domestic success, the film has also performed admirably overseas, grossing approximately $5 million. This achievement not only underscores the film’s widespread appeal but also sets a new record as one of the highest-grossing films in Chiranjeevi’s illustrious career. The international audience has embraced the film, contributing to its impressive overall revenue.
The film’s success is further illustrated by the staggering number of tickets sold, with over 4 million tickets sold through BookMyShow alone. This level of interest reflects the film’s cultural impact and the strong fan base of Chiranjeevi, who continues to attract audiences to theaters across regions.
As “Man Shankara Varaprasad Garu” continues to break records and captivate audiences, it stands as a testament to the power of storytelling in cinema and the ability of a well-crafted film to resonate with viewers. The collaboration between Chiranjeevi and Anil Ravipudi has proven to be a winning combination, and the film’s legacy is poised to influence future projects in the Telugu film industry.
With such remarkable achievements in just 25 days, “Man Shankara Varaprasad Garu” is not only a commercial success but also a cultural phenomenon that celebrates the richness of regional cinema. Its impact is likely to be felt for years to come, as it paves the way for future filmmakers and actors in the industry.
