Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu Box Office Collection Day 1: Chiranjeevi-Nayanthara Starrer Benefits From The Raja Saab's Poor Performance, Earns ₹37.10 Crore

Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu Box Office Collection Day 1: The Chiranjeevi and Nayanthara starrer hit the theatres on January 12, coinciding with Lohri and Makar Sankranti holidays. The movie skipped the usual Thursday release to give space to Prabhas starrer The Raja Saab, as it was anticipated to be one of the big movies of January. However, the film suffered a steep decline in the collections on Monday, paving the way for Chiranjeevi's starrer at the box office in India.
