Vishnu Manchu's long-awaited dream project, "Kannappa," has faced several delays but now has a confirmed release date. The team, including Mohan Babu, Vishnu Manchu, Prabhu Deva, and executive producer Vinay Maheshwari, recently met with Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to seek his blessings. During the meeting, the Chief Minister unveiled a poster announcing the film’s official release date: June 27, 2025.

Produced by Dr. Mohan Babu, "Kannappa" is a devotional action film inspired by the story of an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva. The movie is directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh and features a star-studded cast, including Mohanlal, Prabhas, and Akshay Kumar in significant roles. These top actors joined the project due to Vishnu Manchu’s passion and dedication to presenting this spiritual narrative using cutting-edge technology.

"Kannappa" will be released across multiple languages to reach a wider audience — including Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi — on its release day.
