Chiranjeevi has bounced back after the failure of Bhola Shankar, delivering a hit with Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu. Made on an enormous budget of 200 crore, the Sankranti release recovered its entire cost and delivered decent returns on the Indian box office. With such success, the trade is now confident about Megastar’s next, Vishwambhara, which was earlier described as a dangerous project. Keep reading for an in depth report!
The upcoming Telugu fantasy motion film was alleged to release before Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, but resulting from heavy post-production work, it was delayed. It’s now prone to be released in theaters within the second half of 2026. It has been learned that, resulting from heavy VFX, the film’s budget has increased from the initial estimate.
How much does Vishwambhara have to enter the protected zone on the Indian box office?
Reportedly, Vishwambhara is a magnum opus mounted on a budget of 250 crore. With such a high budget, it should have to perform extremely well on the Indian box office. To enter the protected zone and avoid being a failure, the film might want to earn 250 crore net, a difficult but achievable goal with positive word of mouth.
Can it secure a success verdict?
To develop into a clean hit on the Indian box office, Vishwambhara might want to deliver 100% returns, and that might be achieved with a net collection of 500 crore. This goal looks completely out of reach, because the film relies heavily on the Telugu market. Even with a pan-India release, it’s unlikely to rake in such hefty numbers, since Chiranjeevi doesn’t have the huge pull within the Hindi belt, which is crucial to hitting the 500-crore goal.
More in regards to the film
The magnum opus is written and directed by Mallidi Vassishta. It also stars Trisha Krishnan, Ashika Ranganath, Isha Chawla, Surbhi Puranik, and Kunal Kapoor in key roles. It’s produced by V. Vamsi Krishna Reddy, Pramod Uppalapati, and Vikram Reddy under the banner of UV Creations.
