Megastar Chiranjeevi’s film, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, directed by Anil Ravipudi and also featuring Nayanthara and Venkatesh, took the biggest opening of Chiranjeevi sir’s career worldwide on its first day. The film, released in a single language (Telugu) with a budget of ₹200 crore, has seen its earnings improve daily since its release, benefiting from the Sankranti holidays.

The film collected an India net of ₹88 crore 62 lakh in its first three days. On its fourth day, the film performed better than expected, earning ₹22 crore 41 lakh net in India.

With these figures, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu’s total All India net collection over five days stands at ₹135 crore 53 lakh. Its India gross collection reached ₹161 crore 28 lakh. The film has also performed well overseas, collecting a gross of ₹43 crore 72 lakh.
In its first five days, the film’s total worldwide collection is ₹205 crore. This means the film has surpassed the ₹200 crore mark globally within five days. Looking ahead, strong collections are expected on Saturday and a jump is anticipated on Sunday. If trends continue, the film could approach ₹300 crore worldwide by the end of its first week.

Dhurandhar had collected an India net of ₹866 crore 40 lakh in its first 41 days. On its 42nd day, the film maintained a strong hold, earning ₹3 crore 20 lakh in the Indian market. Despite a reduction in screens due to new Bollywood releases this week, the film’s occupancy on its 43rd day has been better than the previous day.
Based on morning show occupancy and booking trends for afternoon, evening, and night shows, the film is estimated to earn approximately ₹3 crore 50 lakh in the Indian market on its 43rd day.

Border 2 Box Office Predictions
Border 2, an action war drama directed by Anurag Singh, is one of this year’s most awaited Bollywood films. It features Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Ahan Shetty, and Diljit Dosanjh. The film is set to release on January 23rd.
While advance bookings for Border 2 have not yet begun, they are expected to start soon in India. Based on the film’s trailer, initial box office predictions suggest it could earn at least ₹50 crore on its opening day in the Indian box office. Its worldwide gross collection on the first day is projected to be in the range of at least ₹70 crore.
With its release on January 23rd, the film will benefit from a strong opening weekend, followed by a substantial collection on January 26th (Monday holiday). This trend suggests that Border 2 could accumulate ₹200 to ₹250 crore worldwide within its first three to four days. If the film is well-received, it has the potential to surpass ₹1000 crore at the box office, similar to Dhurandhar.
The Raja Saab Box Office Report
Pan India superstar Prabhas’s film The Raja Saab, a romantic horror comedy directed by Maruthi, and co-starring Sanjay Dutt, Malavika Mohanan, and Nidhi Agarwal, was released last week. With a budget of ₹350 crore, the film premiered in five languages: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.
The Raja Saab earned over ₹100 crore worldwide on its first day. However, its collections experienced a significant drop from the third day onwards due to the release of another major Telugu film. Initially, the film was released on approximately 7000 screens worldwide in its first week. For the second week, its screen count has fallen to less than 2000, and Hindi screens have also been significantly reduced due to new Bollywood releases.
In its first six days, The Raja Saab collected ₹20 crore 65 lakh from the Hindi market and ₹115 crore 58 lakh from South Indian languages. This brought its total All Languages India net collection for six days to ₹136 crore 23 lakh. On its seventh day, the film collected ₹5 crore 61 lakh net across all languages in India.
For its eighth day, based on better morning show occupancy in Telugu states and improved bookings for afternoon, evening, and night shows in South areas compared to the previous day, The Raja Saab is estimated to earn approximately ₹6 crore 50 lakh in the Indian market. This pushes the film’s total All India net collection to ₹148 crore 34 lakh over eight days, with an India gross collection of ₹176 crore and ₹51 lakh.
The film’s total worldwide box office collection so far stands at ₹31 crore and ₹29 lakh. The film has earned more than ₹230 crore worldwide. Collections are expected to be good on Saturday and Sunday. The film’s lifetime box office collection will depend on its performance after Monday.
