Zee Studios has struck a massive deal for Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, the highly anticipated film directed by Anil Ravipudi and starring Megastar Chiranjeevi. Following the success of Ravipudi's previous film Sankranthiki Vastunnam, which garnered a strong family audience, Zee Studios has secured the full satellite and digital rights to Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu for a record price. This deal is not only one of the biggest for Zee Studios but also marks a significant moment for both Chiranjeevi and Ravipudi in terms of distribution and marketing.
In an interesting twist, Zee Studios has sold the Hindi digital rights of the film to Amazon Prime, while retaining the South satellite and streaming rights, making this a highly competitive deal amidst ongoing battles between Netflix and Amazon for content rights. Zee Studios, with its massive offer, was able to secure the deal despite intense competition.
The film, which is set to begin its next shooting schedule in September 2025, is expected to hit theaters for a grand Sankranthi 2026 release. Fans are eagerly awaiting the film, especially with Nayanthara cast as the female lead, alongside music by Bheems, making it one of the most awaited projects of the year. The movie is produced by Sahu Garapati and Sushmitha Konidela, adding further excitement among Chiranjeevi's loyal fanbase and moviegoers. With this record deal, Zee Studios continues to build on its success in distributing major films and positioning itself as a key player in the Indian film industry’s distribution space.
