Megastar Chiranjeevi’s birthday turned into a double celebration for fans this year as the makers of his highly awaited film with blockbuster director Anil Ravipudi unveiled the film’s official title and glimpse. Previously referred to by its working title #Mega157, the film has now been christened Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu—a name that connects closely with Chiranjeevi’s real identity, Sivasankara Varaprasad, while carrying the festive tagline “Pandagaki Vasthunnaru” (Coming for the Festival).

A Perfect Birthday Treat for Fans

The title glimpse takes fans straight into Ravipudi’s signature zone of mass elevation and entertainment. Chiranjeevi makes a swagger-filled entry—arriving in a car, lighting a cigarette, and walking with commandos at his side. As he confidently tosses the cigarette, the film’s title is revealed, dramatically elevated by a powerful narration from none other than Victory Venkatesh. This unexpected collaboration has further amplified the buzz.

Stylish Presentation Meets Nostalgia

The video showcases Chiranjeevi in one of his most stylish avatars in recent times. With tailored suits, mass-friendly swag, and his evergreen charisma, the star is presented as both regal and relatable. A standout moment from the glimpse has to be the majestic horse shot, which has already started trending as a highlight.

Adding to the throwback charm, the glimpse features a remixed version of the cult classic “Love Me My Hero” from Rowdy Alludu. Music director Bheems Ceciroleo’s fresh spin on the evergreen track has struck a chord with older fans while offering younger audiences a taste of Chiranjeevi’s unmatched screen legacy.

Technical Brilliance and Top-Notch Production

Cinematographer Sameer Reddy’s work exudes richness and cinematic elevation, perfectly complementing Chiranjeevi’s on-screen persona. Backed by Shine Screens (producer Sahu Garapati) and Gold Box Entertainments (producer Sushmita Konidela), the film promises high-end visuals, lavish sets, and a production scale worthy of the Megastar’s stature.

Art direction by A.S. Prakash ensures grandeur in every frame, while editor Tammiraju’s cuts are sharp and stylish. A strong writing team led by S. Krishna and G. Adi Narayana further strengthens the creative foundation.

Opposite Chiranjeevi, actress Nayanthara plays the female lead, lending both glamour and gravitas to the film. The additional cast includes VTV Ganesh, adding comic flavour. The project boasts a hefty technical lineup:
