Sankranthi 2026 witnessed a massive clash, with five major Tollywood releases hitting the big screens. Prabhas’ The Raja Saab, Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu, Ravi Teja’s Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignypathi, Naveen Polishetty’s Anaganaga Oka Raju, and Sharwanand’s Nari Nari Naduma Murari locked horns at the box office.
With all films now released, audiences have already delivered their verdict. Yesterday, we conducted a poll asking our readers to vote for the Sankranthi release that satisfied them the most. The result turned out to be clear and one-sided, with nearly 60% of respondents choosing Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu as their top pick.
Nari Nari Naduma Murari and Anaganaga Oka Raju secured the second and third positions with 22% and 10% of the votes, respectively. The Raja Saab and Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignypathi found themselves at the bottom of the list, with 6% and 2% of the votes.
Mirroring the poll results, Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu has emerged as the clear winner at the box office. The film is poised to become the highest-grosser among Sankranthi 2026 releases within the next couple of days. It is also on track to achieve regional industry hit status, overtaking Sankranthiki Vasthunam. Once again, Chiranjeevi has proved why he is celebrated as the box office emperor.
Meanwhile, Nari Nari Naduma Murari and Anaganaga Oka Raju are expected to fetch handsome profits for buyers. On the other hand, The Raja Saab and Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignypathi have fallen short of expectations at the box office, and the road ahead looks challenging. Among these two films, Ravi Teja’s film has better talk, but Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi is facing the heat due to heavy competition.
