MSVPG Box Office: Anil Ravipudi’s 9-0 Streak; Chiranjeevi Starrer Takes a Huge Start with ₹35 Cr+ Pre-Sales

Director Anil Ravipudi has maintained a flawless track record with his latest release, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu (MSVPG). This marks his 9th consecutive box office success since his debut, a rare milestone in the Indian film industry. By delivering nine hits in a row without a single failure, Ravipudi has established a level of consistency that remains unmatched by his contemporary filmmakers.

Anil Ravipudi's journey began with the high-energy action-comedy Pataas (2015), which immediately established his knack for commercial success, collecting approximately ₹15.5 Cr India Net and earning a Super Hit verdict. He maintained this momentum with Supreme (2016), which garnered ₹25 Cr India Net, followed by the innovative blind-action thriller Raja The Great (2017). The latter amassed ₹31.10 Cr India Net (₹52 Cr Worldwide Gross), marking his superhit and proving his ability to handle unique concepts within the commercial format.

The director reached a new echelon of stardom with the 2019 comedy riot F2: Fun and Frustration. The film became a Blockbuster, collecting a staggering ₹98.5 Cr India Net and crossing the ₹137 Cr mark globally. This phenomenal success paved the way for his collaboration with Mahesh Babu in Sarileru Neekevvaru (2020). Releasing during the Sankranthi window, the film dominated the box office with ₹169.55 Cr India Net and a massive ₹221 Cr Worldwide Gross, solidifying Ravipudi's reputation as the Sankranthi Specialist.

Even with the challenges of the post-pandemic market, Ravipudi's 100% Success Rate remained intact. He delivered F3: Fun and Frustration (2022), which earned ₹67.34 Cr India Net (₹90 Cr Worldwide Gross), followed by the career-defining Bhagavanth Kesari (2023). Starring Nandamuri Balakrishna, this film not only collected ₹84.78 Cr India Net (₹114.5 Cr Worldwide Gross) but also won the National Film Award for Best Telugu Film, elevating Ravipudi from a commercial filmmaker to a critically acclaimed director.

The streak continued into 2025 with Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, a Blockbuster that collected over ₹ 186.97 Cr India Net and ₹255.48 Cr Worldwide Gross. Now, Ravipudi has reached the pinnacle of his career by directing Megastar Chiranjeevi in Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu (MSVPG). With premiere grosses already touching ₹9.02 Cr and worldwide Day 1 pre-sales exceeding ₹35 Cr, this film is not just another project; it is a monumental spectacle that cements his 9-0 success streak and delivers one of the biggest box office starts in the Megastar's storied career

The highly anticipated collaboration between the industry's Hit Machine, Anil Ravipudi, and the Megastar, Chiranjeevi, has ignited the box office with an explosive start. Following a series of extensive premiere shows held yesterday, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu (MSVPG) delivered a massive statement, raking in a total premiere gross of ₹9.02 Crores. This thunderous opening is backed by overwhelmingly positive feedback from early audiences, setting a powerful tone for the film's theatrical journey.

Diving into the territory-wise breakdown, the film's dominance in the Telugu states was absolute, where it amassed a combined ₹7.86 Crores. The Nizam region contributed a solid ₹2.58 Crores from just 201 shows, while Andhra Pradesh led the charge with a massive ₹5.28 Crores across 459 shows. Beyond its home turf, the film also made a significant mark in Karnataka, adding ₹1.16 Crores to the total gross. The premiere occupancy, particularly in Andhra Pradesh, was exceptionally high as fans throned theaters in record numbers to witness Chiranjeevi in a character that pays a grand, nostalgic homage to his legendary real-life name.

Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu is looking at a monumental Day 1. The film has already recorded ₹35 Crore+ Gross in worldwide pre-sales (including premiere shows). With the Sankranthi festive fever kicking in and the positive word-of-mouth from premieres, the Day 1 global gross is estimated to touch the ₹65–70 Crore mark. If these numbers hold, it will rank among the biggest opening days in the Megastar's legendary career, firmly placing it alongside his elite list of high-grossing blockbusters

The data suggests that the Boss is Back in his most powerful form. By combining Anil Ravipudi's knack for family-friendly commercial beats with Chiranjeevi's unmatched charisma, MSVPG has secured its status as a winner on Day 1 itself. For Anil Ravipudi, this isn't just another hit; it is the 9th jewel in his crown, proving that he truly is The Man with the Midas touch in Telugu cinema.
