Dil Raju Acquired Nizam Rights Of Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu For A Reasonable Deal

Producer Dil Raju has secured a lucrative deal for Megastar Chiranjeevi's next film, set to release on Sankranthi 2026. The movie, titled "Mana Shankara Vara Prasad", marks the first collaboration of Megastar Chiranjeevi and director Anil Ravipudi. The film has already generated significant buzz, thanks to the combination of Chiranjeevi and Anil Ravipudi, who have previously delivered blockbusters like "Khaidi No 150" and "Waltair Veerayya" during the Sankranthi festival.

The movie is currently in production, with scenes featuring Venkatesh and Catherine Tresa being canned. A pub song is set to be shot with Chiranjeevi and Venkatesh, and the entire shooting is expected to be completed by next month's second week. Dil Raju has acquired the Nizam rights of the film for 32 Cr, a reasonable business considering the film's release during Sankranthi.

The Sankranthi 2026 release schedule is expected to be crowded, with several films, including the pan India biggie "The Raja Saab", vying for screen space. The screen count will play a crucial role in determining the film's success. However, with the combination of Chiranjeevi and Anil Ravipudi, and the popularity of the Meesala Pilla song, "Mana Shankara Vara Prasad" is expected to generate significant interest among audiences.

Dil Raju has also bagged Sithara Entertainments and Naveen Polishetty's Anaganaga Oka Raju, further solidifying his position in the Telugu film industry. If the film receives positive word of mouth, it can easily achieve a 40 Cr share and gather more. With the stakes high, all eyes are on "Mana Shankara Vara Prasad" as it prepares to take on the competition during Sankranthi 2026.
