Update:
The
Telugu
family
action
thriller
Mana
ShankaraVaraPrasad
Garu
hit
theaters
worldwide
on
January
12,
2026,
coinciding
with
the
Sankranti
festive
period.
With
the
film
releasing
on
a
Monday
amid
the
holiday
season,
early
attention
has
turned
to
its
opening-day
box
office
performance,
even
as
the
day’s
shows
are
still
underway.
As
of
around
mid-afternoon
on
Day
1,
early
box
office
tracking
indicates
that
the
film
has
registered
a
steady
start
at
the
domestic
box
office.
According
to
live
data
from
Sacnilk,
Mana
ShankaraVaraPrasad
Garu
has
earned
approximately
₹
9.25
crore
net
in
India
so
far.
It
is
important
to
note
that
these
figures
are
based
on
partial
data,
with
several
evening
and
night
shows
yet
to
contribute
to
the
final
tally.
According
to
Sacnilk,
current
numbers
reflect
live
estimates
and
are
subject
to
change
as
more
collections
are
reported
through
the
day.
The
data
is
expected
to
be
updated
hourly,
with
final
Day
1
estimates
likely
to
emerge
later
in
the
night.
As
a
result,
the
figures
available
at
this
stage
should
not
be
treated
as
the
film’s
closing
numbers
for
its
opening
day.
