Not all reactions were positive, however. One user wrote in Telugu that Chiru’s acting, Venky’s cameo, songs, cinematography, and direction were good. However, they felt the story was routine, the villain’s track was weak, and the climax was boring. He rated the film 2/5 and called it below average.

Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu is thoroughly @KChiruTweets’s show, supported by a well-placed cameo from Venkatesh, Nayanthara doing what she does best, and @AnilRavipudi’s trademark family-friendly comedy drama.
The film kicks off straight away with the lead’s introduction,…
