first week. This accomplishment is the highest career share for Chiranjeevi in the region, exceeding all previous performances since his comeback. Furthermore, the film demonstrated its strength by achieving breakeven status across all seven territories within Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. This accomplishment signifies a significant milestone for a film with a theatrical business exceeding ₹100 crore, especially considering its ability to break even in every single territory in the Telugu states.

Box Office Highlights

On the other hand, 'The Raja Saab,' starring Prabhas, has not been able to capture the same momentum. Despite an expected boost, the film experienced a significant decline in its box office performance over the weekend. Early estimates from Sacnilk reveal that 'The Raja Saab' earned only ₹3.5 crore on its second Friday, which dropped to ₹3 crore on Saturday and further to ₹2.5 crore on the second Sunday. Consequently, the film managed to collect just ₹9 crore over its second weekend, bringing its total domestic net collection to ₹139 crore. In contrast, 'Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu' has achieved multiple milestones including selling 3 million tickets, and earning ₹292+ crore worldwide gross, with makers claiming they have recovered the film's budget.

Occupancy Rates Soar

During the period, 'Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu' showed impressive occupancy rates in Telugu theaters, recording an overall 59.67%. The film maintained a strong presence throughout the day, with 45.51% occupancy during morning shows, 67.79% in the afternoon, peaking at 74.95% in the evening, and still holding a respectable 50.41% during night shows. The steady figures across different showtimes indicate the film's widespread appeal and sustained interest from moviegoers. This consistent performance underscores the movie's ability to engage audiences across different demographics and viewing preferences.

Overseas Success Story

The film has not only become a blockbuster in India but has also made a notable impact on the international stage. With overseas collections of approximately ₹35.25 crore (around $4.2 million), 'Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu' has become Chiranjeevi's highest-grossing release in North America, surpassing the lifetime earnings of 'Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy' in the region. The film is on track to surpass the $3 million mark in the US alone, further highlighting its global popularity. This achievement is a testament to the film's universal appeal and the star power of Chiranjeevi, resonating with audiences far beyond the Indian borders.
