Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi (Shanti Mantra; lit. 'Om, Peace, Peace, Peace') is a 2026 Indian Telugu-language comedy drama film directed by A. R. Sajeev. It is a remake of the 2022 Malayalam-language film Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya Hey. The film stars Tharun Bhascker and Eesha Rebba. The plot follows Prashanthi (Rebba), who unwillingly marries Omkar Naidu (Bhascker), a short-tempered male chauvinist. Upon receiving no support while suffering domestic violence, Prashanthi decides to resist.
Principal photography of the film began in April 2024 and wrapped up in December 2025, with majority of the filming taking place in Rajahmundry. The film was theatrically released on 30 January 2026.
Prashanthi gives up her dreams for love, only to fall into abusive relationships first with her lecturer and later with her husband, Omkar, who pretends to support her but turns violent and manipulative. After enduring trauma, betrayal, and a heartbreaking miscarriage, she secretly strengthens herself, escapes his control, and rebuilds her life by starting a successful business. When Omkar's abuse becomes public and reaches court, she refuses divorce, not out of love, but to ensure no other woman suffers the same fate.
