Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu is all set for a massive release on January 12, 2026, and there is huge buzz around the film as Chiranjeevi has teamed up with director Anil Ravipudi, whose last film, Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, ended as a smash hit at the box office.
Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu trailer review
Ahead of the film’s release, the makers revealed the theatrical trailer, and it brings back vintage Chiranjeevi with a bang. Be it his looks, body language, or dialogue delivery, Anil Ravipudi designs Chiranjeevi’s character in such a way that it allows him to play a mature man while also showcasing his action skills.
Chiranjeevi plays a national security agent and is married to Nayanthara. The transformation from a tough cop to a lovable husband is showcased in a hilarious manner. Nayanthara plays Chiranjeevi’s wife, and she looks gorgeous. The chemistry between the lead pair, their banter and the comedy it evokes—looks top-notch.
Are Chiranjeevi's old songs being remixed in Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu?
Bheems Ceciroleo composes the music, and the way he uses Chiranjeevi’s old hit songs as the background score is a masterstroke. Sachin Khedekar plays Chiranjeevi’s father-in-law, and a majority of the jokes are centered around him.
However, the main aspect that captures your imagination is Chiranjeevi himself. To play a tough cop, the megastar has toned down significantly and looks sharp. Though he is 70 years old, the way he fights, dances, and shares crackling chemistry with Nayanthara is superb.
Although the main story of the film has not been revealed, one gets the idea that the film revolves around a tough cop dealing with issues in his married life.
Is Venkatesh playing a cameo in Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu?
The icing on the cake is the arrival of Venkatesh in a chopper. The manner in which his entry is designed and the way he shares punch dialogues with Chiranjeevi is one of the best aspects of the film.
The production values are top-notch, and it is clear that the film will be high on comedy in true Anil Ravipudi style. It has been quite some time since we have seen Chiranjeevi in such a fun role, and Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu brings him back to that zone that fans have wanted to see for a very long time.
Though a few feel the trailer is over-the-top and does not offer anything new, it is packed with mad fun and is expected to take record openings on January 12, 2026.
