While big stars and strong openings continue to cushion the fall for major titles, smaller and mid-scale films are finding it increasingly difficult to stay afloat as the box office gears up for the next wave of releases. Scroll down to read the box office report in detail!
Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu box office collection
Leading the pack remains Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu, which continues its strong run despite a visible slowdown. On Day 11, the action-comedy earned Rs 0.13 crore in India net, taking its total collection to an impressive Rs 175.78 crore. Directed by Anil Ravipudi and led by Chiranjeevi Konidala, the film benefited from massive early momentum, especially in the Andhra Pradesh and Telangana belts. While the collections have dipped sharply in the second week, the film remains the highest-grosser among current releases.
