In the Telugu states and across India, Sankranthi 2026 releases Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, Anaganaga Oka Raju, and Nari Nari Naduma Murari buyers have seen massive profits and huge overflows.
But in the USA market, buyers did not see any major profits from Sankranthi 2026 releases. The breakeven for Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu was valued at $3.25M+, and the film has collected around $3.3M, just crossing the breakeven mark.

Similarly, Anaganaga Oka Raju had a breakeven of $1.7M and collected about $1.75M. Nari Nari Naduma Murari had a breakeven of $700K and has collected around $750K so far. From here on, all three films may still add some numbers, but overall, they have only managed to achieve breakeven for buyers, including expenses, without delivering big profits as they did in the Telugu states.
Coming to The Raja Saab, the USA has turned out to be the most disappointing territory. The breakeven was valued at $7.4M, while the film has collected only $2.35M so far, just around 30% of the breakeven value. Ravi Teja’s Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi ended with collections of just $213K, turning out to be a huge disaster.
Overall, for USA buyers, two films disappointed in a significant way, and the same trend was seen in the Telugu states as well. However, for the other three films, Telugu states’ buyers made big profits, whereas in the USA, they only managed to achieve breakeven status with no significant profit.
