Megastar Chiranjeevi continues his formidable overseas box-office run with Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu registering a stellar $1.2+ million and counting from its North America premiere shows. The impressive opening once again underlines the Megastar’s enduring appeal among Telugu audiences across the United States and Canada.

With this feat, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu becomes Chiranjeevi’s second film to breach the $1.2 million premiere gross mark in North America, reinforcing his sustained star power in overseas markets. The festive Sankranti release window, coupled with massive pre-release anticipation, significantly contributed to the film’s robust opening numbers.

Directed by Anil Ravipudi, the film capitalizes on Chiranjeevi’s vintage comic timing and wholesome, family-oriented entertainment — a combination that appears to have struck a strong chord with diaspora audiences. The casting of Nayanthara as the female lead, along with Venkatesh in a special role, further amplified the pre-release buzz and audience interest.

Trade analysts note that the $1.2+ million premiere haul provides a solid launchpad for the film’s weekend and long-run prospects in overseas territories. Encouraging word of mouth, particularly from family audiences, is expected to help the film maintain steady collections in the days ahead.

With Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu opening on such a powerful note in North America, attention now turns to its extended festive run and overall performance across both domestic and international markets, as the Megastar once again proves his unmatched box-office consistency.
