Director Anil Ravipudi has created a separate brand with continuous hits at the box office, proving that directors can establish their own market value in an era where many struggle to do so. It is widely known that he has scored a solid blockbuster with Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, starring Chiranjeevi, which was released for this Sankranthi.
The film’s success is not limited only to theaters, and it continued on OTT and Television as well. Box office success is one thing, but dominating OTT and also the television ratings is another achievement altogether.
