Just watched @iVishnuManchu Kannappa in the USA. Slower first half and a more engaging second half. Vishnu’s performance is stellar and top notch; more than 17 min of Prabhas’s screen time. Ending is intense. Vishnu Tried very hard to create an epic and the movie is worth… pic.twitter.com/l2NK1VEEMC

First half is slow and builds up the plot, and 2nd half is pure devotion and is structured amazingly. #Prabhas Anna and @iVishnuManchu Anna did very well.
The last 25 Mins of the film was pure goosebumps for me. Theater… pic.twitter.com/areAkAwEZ0

We are excited for the world to experience the grandeur of Kannappa.”

Vishnu Manchu, who has been passionately working on Kannappa for over a decade, added, “This film is incredibly close to my heart. It brings to life a historical tale that is often referred to as mythology. By Lord Shiva’s blessings, everything has fallen into place, from the breathtaking locations to the incredible star cast. The overwhelming response we received at Cannes was just the beginning, and I am eager for audiences in India to experience this epic on the big screen. This project has been a labor of love, and I believe Kannappa will leave a lasting impact.”
Meanwhile, Mohanlal is seen as Kirata, Prabhas as Rudra, Akshay Kumar as Lord Shiva and Kajal Aggarwal as Goddess Parvati.
