Leading producer and distributor Dil Raju has given his final verdict on the Sankranthi 2026 box office.
The festive season began on January 8 with the premiere shows of Prabhas starrer The Raja Saab.
With all five Telugu releases currently running in theatres and the festival window coming to a close in the next two days, Dil Raju has now officially summed up the outcome of the season.
He confirmed that Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, Naveen Polishetty’s Anaganga Oka Raju, and Sharwanand’s Nari Nari Naduma Murari have emerged as the clear winners of this Sankranthi.
Dil Raju also expressed his gratitude to the actors and producers of these films for giving his distribution company the opportunity to release them in the Telangana region.
Dil Raju’s assessment reflects the ongoing collection trends across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and North America.
Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu is leading the race with massive collections in the Telugu states and remains the top choice for audiences.
Anaganga Oka Raju is performing well in the domestic market, while registering comparatively stronger footfalls in North America.
Meanwhile, Sharwanand’s Nari Nari Naduma Murari has turned out to be a sleeper hit, exceeding initial expectations.
