After weeks of whispers, the title of Megastar Chiranjeevi’s new movie with Anil Ravipudi is finally locked. And this one is not the usual short-and-snappy name. Anil Ravipudi has decided to go grand and emotional, digging straight into the Megastar’s roots. The film will be called “Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu”, with the tagline “Pandagaki Vasthunnaru.” The connection is obvious – Chiranjeevi’s real name is Konidela Siva Shankara Vara Prasad. Fans say it’s like the star is bringing his identity back to the big screen.
This movie is aiming straight for Sankranthi 2026, while Chiranjeevi’s other project, Vishwambhara, is lined up for summer. The overlap had slowed updates, but now Anil Ravipudi’s film is ready to hog the spotlight. The team, backed by producers Sahu Garapati and Chiru’s daughter Sushmita, has already prepared the roadmap. And the timing is symbolic, the official title reveal is set for tomorrow, August 22nd, Chiranjeevi’s 70th birthday. Along with it, a teaser glimpse is also being readied.
But here’s the twist. The teaser won’t just have visuals and mass moments. Sources reveal a senior superstar, someone from Chiru’s own generation, will lend his voice to introduce the Megastar’s character. The identity of this mystery voice is being kept under tight wraps, adding more heat to the buzz.
With Ravipudi known for mixing comedy, drama, and festival energy, this film is shaping up as a complete entertainer. The title may sound long, but fans feel it carries weight, respect, and nostalgia. And come Chiru’s birthday, the glimpse is expected to set the festive mood months ahead of Sankranthi. After all, when a film carries the star’s real name, expectations naturally double.
