Live: దొంగ స్వామిని గెంటేశారు | Big News Debate With Murthy | Venu Swamy

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Sankranti release Mana Shankar Vara Prasad Garu has received a massive boost in hype just at the right time ahead of its theatrical release on January 12, thanks to the whistle-worthy instant chartbuster ‘Hook Step’, which was unveiled on Wednesday.

Chiranjeevi’s electrifying dance moves, combined with his vintage grace and effortless swag, have struck a perfect balance between nostalgia and contemporary appeal. The modern beats and catchy lyrics further elevate the song, turning it into an instant rage within minutes of its release. Not just Mega fans, but audiences across all sections have been raving about Chiru’s unmatched charm, style, and screen presence.

The response to the Hook Step lyrical video has been overwhelming, with social media flooded with fan-made edits celebrating Chiranjeevi’s iconic dance style from his timeless classics. Composer Bheems Ceciroleo delivers a foot-tapping tune, while Baba Sehgal’s distinctive vocals add extra energy to the track. Earlier, the first song Meesala Pilla emerged as a blockbuster and played a key role in building strong buzz around this full-fledged entertainer.

While the trailer and the much-hyped Chiru–Venky song received a decent response, Hook Step has completely tilted the momentum in the film’s favour. Special credit goes to choreographer Aata Sandeep, who has successfully brought out Chiranjeevi in his prime form through this high-energy number.

With less than a week to go for its grand release, the phenomenal reception to Hook Step is expected to translate into strong festival buzz and solid opening numbers at the box office, despite stiff competition from other Sankranti releases. If the film manages to secure positive word of mouth, Tollywood could witness a full-fledged box office storm led by Megastar Chiranjeevi.

Directed by Anil Ravipudi, the film stars Nayanthara as the female lead and is set to hit theatres on January 12.
