Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu Box Office Collection Day 9: Chiranjeevi Film Crosses ₹171 Crore India Net

Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu Box Office Collection: Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu, the Telugu family action thriller headlined by Chiranjeevi, continues its theatrical run with steady box office numbers. Released worldwide on January 12, 2026, the film entered cinemas amid high holiday footfalls during the Sankranti season and completed nine full days at the box office as of January 20. Today, January 21, marks its tenth day in theatres.

According to estimates reported by Sacnilk, Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu has collected approximately ₹171.65 crore India net, inclusive of premiere shows and its first nine days of release. The film opened with paid previews on Sunday, followed by a strong first Monday, before settling into expected weekday fluctuations.

The box office run began with ₹9.35 crore from premiere day screenings. Day 1, which fell on a Monday, emerged as the highest single-day collection so far at ₹32.25 crore. While collections dropped on Day 2, the film maintained relative stability through the remainder of its first week, with daily figures largely staying in the high teens and early twenties. The second Monday and Tuesday saw sharper declines, with Day 8 earning ₹8 crore and Day 9 adding an estimated ₹5.75 crore, based on early tracking.

With the initial festive period over, the film's performance now reflects normal second-week trends, taking its nine-day India net total to ₹171.65 crore.

Film overview, cast details, and second-week box office focus

Directed by Anil Ravipudi, Mana ShankaraVaraprasad Garu revolves around Shankara Vara Prasad, a national security officer whose personal life becomes complicated after differences with his wife's influential family lead to a separation. Years later, circumstances push him back into his children's lives under an assumed identity. The narrative blends family dynamics with professional stakes, bringing together drama, situational humour, and action-driven moments.

The film features an ensemble cast that includes Venkatesh Daggubati, Nayanthara, and Catherine Tresa. Music for the project is composed by Bheems Ceciroleo, with cinematography handled by Sameer Reddy and editing by Tammiraju. The film is produced by Sahu Garapati and Sushmita Konidela under the Shine Screens and Gold Box Entertainments banners.

As the film enters its tenth day in theaters, attention will now be on how it performs through the remainder of its second week, especially with weekday occupancy levels becoming a key factor. Further box office updates are expected once official Day 10 figures are reported.
