Vishnu Manchu's Kannappa To Release On OTT? Here's What We Know
Last Updated: Vishnu Manchu had earlier said that the movie's OTT rights had yet to be sold. Kannappa, a mythological drama produced by actor Vishnu Manchu, was released in theatres on June 27. The film starring Akshay Kumar, Prabhas, Mohanlal, Kajal Aggarwal and Vishnu himself, has received a lot of appreciation for its gripping story. In the midst of enormous buzz around the picture, reports suggest that just after 4 weeks since its release, the movie is likely to start streaming on OTT. According to 123Telugu, Kannappa, starring Vishnu Manchu, will be released on Amazon Prime Video on July 25. If the claim is correct, the movie will be available on digital platforms less than a month after its theatrical premiere as opposed to what Vishnu Manchu has earlier stated. During a pre-release event, Vishnu Manchu made it clear that the film will not be available on any streaming platform immediately. Vishnu revealed that the film's OTT rights had yet to be sold, which is a deliberate decision that would allow the film to have a longer theatrical run without the constraints of its OTT release date. Vishnu said, 'I have a very large freedom; my movie will not come to OTT before 10 weeks. That is the deal I have, and by God's grace, I don't have any release pressure. My only intention is to showcase the best to the audience," as quoted by India Today. The movie features an amazing cast and noteworthy cameos. Vishnu Machu portrays a valiant warrior who transforms into Lord Shiva's devoted servant, Bhaktha Kannappa. Akshay Kumar plays Lord Shiva, Prabhas portrays Rudra, while Mohanlal delivers a stunning performance as Kirata. Kannappa tells the story of Thinnadu, a young, ferocious tribal hunter who is atheist. However, one day, the man uncovers a Shiva Lingam in the forest that changes the course of his life. The film was produced by Twenty-Four Frames Factory and AVA Entertainment. Kannappa, which has been released in five languages (Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada and Hindi), provides a visually magnificent and emotionally profound spectacle about devotion and mythology.

Shruti Chauhan: Who Is Saiyaara Star Ahaan Panday's Rumoured Girlfriend?
A new star is making headlines this year, achieving what many established superstars haven't. Rising Bollywood actor Ahaan Panday is gaining widespread attention with his performance in Saiyaara, a romantic film directed by Mohit Suri. Opposite him is newcomer Aneet Padda. This romantic musical drama has already begun earning praise for its emotional depth and chemistry between the leads. While Ahaan Panday's work is being lauded, his personal life is also drawing curiosity, particularly around his rumoured relationship status. Although Ahaan Panday has not made any public comments, his name was previously linked to Suhana Khan. More recently, media speculation has focused on Shruti Chauhan, an actress and model, who may be romantically involved with him. Shruti Chauhan is known for her role as Maya in Gully Boy (2019), and hails from Jaipur, Rajasthan, where she studied Arts at Jyoti Vidyapeeth College. In addition to acting, she featured in the music video Had Se, sung by Jubin Nautiyal, which received a fair amount of attention. Shruti Chauhan is also active on social media, particularly Instagram, where she boasts 223K followers, including well-known names such as Khushi Kapoor, Alaya F, Palak Tiwari, Ishaan Khattar, Ananya Panday, Alizeh Agnihotri, Suhana Khan, and Aryan Khan. Recently, Shruti Chauhan posted a heartfelt review of Saiyaara, praising Mohit Suri's direction and Aneet Padda's performance. What truly caught fans' attention, however, was her emotional support for Ahaan Pandey. She expressed deep pride and affection in her post, reigniting rumours about their relationship. While her comments have added fuel to speculation, a source close to the actress told India Today that these dating rumours are unfounded. The alleged romance has also become a topic of discussion on Reddit's BollyBlindsNGossip page, where fans are divided about whether Ahaan Panday and Shruti Chauhan are truly together or just close friends supporting one another's work.

Shilpa Shirdodkar Says Mahesh Babu Has Gone Through A Lot: 'It Is Not Easy...'
Last Updated: Shilpa Shirodkar also praised Mahesh Babu for always standing by his family's side. Read on. The year 2022 was not easy for Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu. The actor lost three members of his family in a single year – his father, mother and brother. In a recent interview, his sister-in-law, Shilpa Shirodkar, opened up about the same and shared that Mahesh Babu has 'gone through a lot" in his life. 'We were very simple people. Mahesh, to me, is my brother-in-law and one of the finest human beings I know in this world. He stands by family rock solid," she told Zoom. Shilpa further praised Mahesh Babu for always standing by his family's side and added, 'Our men have done a lot for us. It's not easy for a man to stand by a woman who has gone through so much emotionally and mentally. But our men have done everything for us. Because it just happened so suddenly, to lose two healthy people just like that. Mahesh has gone through a lot, losing his family, and you need to show up for your people." For the unversed, Shilpa Shirodkar's sister, Namrata, is married to Mahesh Babu. In the same interview, Shilpa also candidly opened up about their equation and called them 'closest". 'But Namrata is my everything. I think I became closest to her after I got married, actually. And then, after my parents passed away, my equation with her completely changed. I became her child. She worries about me a lot. In fact, I think she worries more about me than she does about her own kids… and also about Anushka!" she said. 'I know she's always there for me, come what may. She has my back. She's also my friend now. I can tell her anything and everything. She has an opinion about everything, which can be really irritating, but I've now learned how to handle her. So when I don't agree with something, I just laugh and talk to her," the actress laughed. First Published: July 23, 2025, 08:53 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
