Pawan Kalyan’s OG was the biggest Telugu grosser of 2025, putting a mega film at the top of the box office for the year. Similarly, a Mega film appears poised to be the highest grosser in 2026.
They Call Him OG collected close to 300 Cr gross worldwide, and coming to 2026, it looks like only a mega film will emerge as the biggest grosser at the box office, as this year, Telugu top stars are not releasing their films.
Mahesh Babu’s Varanasi, Prabhas’s Spirit, the Allu Arjun-Atlee film, and NTR-Prashant Neel’s film are set to be released in 2027, and Prabhas and Sandeep Vanga’s film has already officially announced the release date.
The 2026 Year Belongs to the Mega Family
It means that The Raja Saab, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, Peddi, Vishwambhara, and Ustaad Bhagat Singh are the only biggies this year. While Saab fails to live up to the expectations, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu is already setting a bigger milestone at the box office and is expected to do more than 300 Cr gross in its full run.
The other mega films need to chase this to emerge as the new biggest, and if that does not happen, then Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu will settle as this year’s biggest. Practically, for now, Peddi has more chances to beat the sensational Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu’s number.
