Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu OTT Release: Chiranjeevi-Nayanthara

Following a massive theatrical run where it grossed over ₹375–400 crore worldwide, Megastar Chiranjeevi’s action-comedy blockbuster Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu is finally ready for its digital premiere. The film, which emerged as the biggest winner of the 2026 Sankranti season, will transition to OTT in less than a week.

OTT Release Date and Language Details

ZEE5 has officially announced that the film will begin streaming on February 11, 2026. To cater to a pan-India audience, the platform will release the film in seven languages: Telugu (original), Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, and Bangla.

The Story: A National Security Officer’s Domestic Mission

Directed by the “king of comedy” Anil Ravipudi, the film presents Chiranjeevi in a refreshingly relatable yet powerful avatar.

• The Protagonist: Shankara Vara Prasad (Chiranjeevi) is a top-tier National Security Officer (NIA/NSG) who is a fierce warrior on the field but a soft-hearted, “henpecked” house husband at home.
• The Conflict: His marriage to Sasirekha (Nayanthara), the daughter of a billionaire businessman GVR (Sachin Khedekar), falls apart due to an ideological rift and ego clashes orchestrated by his father-in-law.
• The Mission: Post-divorce, Vara Prasad takes on a secret protection detail to safeguard his estranged family from an unknown criminal threat. He uses this opportunity to win back his wife and children through a series of hilarious and emotional events.

Star-Studded Cast

The film’s highlight is the rare collaboration of two stalwarts:

• Chiranjeevi as Shankara Vara Prasad
• Nayanthara as Sasirekha (Sasi)
• Venkatesh Daggubati in an extended cameo as Venky Gowda, a character from Prasad’s past who adds a heavy dose of humor and nostalgia.
• Catherine Tresa as Jwaala
• Sachin Khedekar as the antagonist father-in-law, GVR

With music by Bheems Ceciroleo and a runtime of 165 minutes, the film has been praised for its “vintage” Chiru-style entertainment, balancing action with family-friendly comedy.
