Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu OTT Twitter Verdict

Taking to social media, a user said that Megastar Chiranjeevi was pure mass and that he had given a small demo which blew everyone away.

Another netizen said that 40 minutes into Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, two songs were a complete waste. The user added that it was unclear whether Chiranjeevi did not know how to act or whether the directors did not know how to utilize him properly, but felt that, to some extent, the Megastar alone was carrying the film.

A third netizen said that with that level of quality, the film was not good at all and added that Sankrathiki Vasthunnam was better.

Here are the reactions:
