After Akshay Kumar, Prabhas starts shooting for Vishnu Manchu’s Epic Actioner ‘Kannappa’ making it a Pan India Magnum Opus !

Chennai 10 May 2024 The highly anticipated magnum opus, “Kannappa,” has welcomed another powerhouse to its stellar cast. Prabhas has officially joined the production, adding his immense talent to an ensemble of Akshay Kumar, Mohan Babu, Mohanlal, and Brahmanandam.

Vishnu Manchu, the driving force behind this passion project, has dedicated seven years to meticulously shaping the narrative, infusing it with depth and grandeur. Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, “Kannappa” pays homage to the unwavering devotion of Bhakta Kannappa, a devout follower of Lord Shiva.

Vishnu Manchu Shares, “With my dear friend Prabhas onboard, “Kannappa” emerges as a true Pan-Indian magnum opus, uniting stars from diverse linguistic backgrounds. His unwavering commitment to his craft and his ability to immerse himself fully in every role he undertakes are qualities that I deeply admire.

He further added, “The addition of Prabhas to a cast featuring Akshay Kumar and Mohanlal Sir cements the film’s status as a cultural phenomenon that transcends regional boundaries. With each actor bringing their unique flair and charisma, “Kannappa” promises to be an unforgettable cinematic experience that unites audiences from every corner of the country.”

Kannappa has some fine crew attached to it – from the renowned Hollywood cinematographer Sheldon Chau, action director Kecha Khamphakdee, to dance maestro Prabhu Deva. The film promises to be a visual spectacle combined with a poignant narrative. The film was announced at Srikalahasteeswara temple last year and is now done with most of its principal photography.
