The Anil Ravipudi directorial has made a particularly strong impression in the North American market. During its opening phase itself, the film crossed the $1.2 million mark, achieving the milestone even before completing a full day of screenings in the region. According to a 123Telugu report, this early performance has already pushed the film past the lifetime North America collections of Akhanda 2: Thaandavam, which ended its overseas run at around $1 million. Trade estimates from Sacnilk further suggest that the film recorded an impressive premiere gross of over $1.5 million in North America.
In the domestic market, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu registered a strong opening day. As per Sacnilk, the Chiranjeevi–Venkatesh starrer earned Rs 37.10 crore net in India on Day 1, including preview shows. Of this, Rs 8.60 crore came from Day 0 previews, while regular Day 1 screenings contributed Rs 28.50 crore.
Occupancy trends in Telugu-speaking states also reflect the film’s solid start. On Monday, the overall occupancy stood at 64.66 per cent. While morning shows began on a decent note, footfalls improved steadily as the day progressed. Afternoon shows saw better turnout, and the momentum peaked during evening and night shows, which recorded occupancies of 71.20 per cent and 78.87 per cent respectively. The strong performance in later shows points towards favourable word-of-mouth, especially among family audiences.
