Shaheer Shaikh Reviews Director Mukesh Kumar Singh's Kannappa, Says 'Proud Of You'
Shaheer Shaikh took to his Instagram story to express his admiration for Kannappa, helmed by Mukesh Kumar Singh. Kannappa, the Vishnu Manchu starrer mythological drama, was released on June 27, with high expectations. While the film is receiving mixed reviews on social media, television actor Shaheer Shaikh took to his Instagram story to share admiration for the movie and its director, Mukesh Kumar Singh. In a wholesome post, the actor shared a clip of himself watching the film, accompanied by a glowing caption that praised the director's work. In a touching Instagram story, Shaheer Shaikh shared his excitement about watching Kannappa, posting a video featuring the film's title screen with intricate visuals. His enthusiasm was palpable as he wrote, 'Finally watching Kannappa." What followed was a touching gesture of appreciation for the director, Mukesh Kumar Singh, with Shaheer expressing his pride, saying, 'Proud of you, Mukesh sir." This sincere message conveyed his admiration for the director's work, showcasing Shaheer's genuine support for the film. About Kannappa The mythological drama Kannappa, directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, has made a significant impact at the box office since its release in multiple languages, including Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi. With the Telugu version leading the charge, the film has garnered attention for its star-studded cameos, featuring industry heavyweights like Mohanlal, Prabhas, Akshay Kumar and Kajal Aggarwal. The ensemble cast, comprising seasoned actors like Mohan Babu, R. Sarathkumar, Madhoo and Preity Mukhundhan, adds depth and richness to the narrative. Kannappa tells the inspiring story of Thinnadu, a tribal hunter who transforms into the revered Shiva devotee Kannappa. The movie chronicles his remarkable journey from an atheist to one of Lord Shiva's most devoted followers, showcasing his unwavering dedication and ultimate sacrifice. Interestingly, Vishnu Manchu recently revealed at a press conference in Hyderabad that some exceptional scenes had to be cut from the film due to subpar visual effects (VFX). Despite this setback, Kannappa has achieved significant success, becoming Vishnu's highest-grossing film to date. This is a notable turnaround, considering his previous films, Ginna and Mosagallu, struggled to cross the Rs 1 crore mark. On Shaheer Sheikh's work front, the actor was last seen in Do Patti alongside Kriti Sanon in the lead, where he played the role of an abusive husband named Dhruv Sood. First Published:

Uppu Kappurambu review: Keerthy Suresh, Suhas's quirky comedy works despite flaws
Prime Video's latest offering, 'Uppu Kappurambu', revolves around an interesting premise, albeit set in a fictional village. A quirky comedy, the Ani IV Sasi-directed film is a clever social commentary on dignity in death and how people are now easily divided over communal differences. Has 'Uppu Kappurambu' hit the right notes? Let's find out!Chitti Jaya Puram, a fictional village, is full of zany characters who follow age-old practices that reek of ignorance, patriarchy and what not. Apoorva (Keerthy Suresh) becomes the village head following the death of her father, who died on duty. But, Apoorva's father fully prepares her to take on duties and calls it the easiest job day, the village's graveyard caretaker, Chinna, approaches Apoorva with a real problem. The graveyard is now short of space, and she is stuck figuring out a solution. Meanwhile, there are influential people in the village, Bheemayya (Babu Mohan) and Madhubabu (Shatru), who want to bring down Apoorva because they do not want to be under a woman's leadership. How does Apoorva deal with these patriarchs amid a brewing cultural problem that forms the crux of the story? Director Ani IV Sasi's 'Uppu Kappurambu' is a sweet film that is also quite clever in its social commentary. The film highlights many socio-political issues, including misogyny, communal divide, dynasty politics and patriarchy, among others. Like the Telugu film, 'Prince', 'Uppu Kappurambu' is set in a fictional village. All the characters in the village are eccentric and rely on shallow situations to tackle. The initial minutes of the film are a stretch because of Keerthy Suresh's exaggerated expressions. In a quirky comedy, one is expected to overdo expressions. But, Keerthy oversells Apoorva to the extent that you become averse to the film. It is only after Apoorva eases into her village head job that the actor mellows down. That's when the film also picks up momentum and cruises fighting for burial space might sound like too trivial a problem. But, it is a valid concern and Apoorva takes Chinna's help to come up with solutions. Every time they come close to a solution, they face another bizarre conflict. The idiosyncrasies of people might come across as a huge surprise. But, it's not just a problem that Chitti Jaya Puram has to go through. It could happen to any of us living in the city and that's when 'Uppu Kappurambu' hits Chinna is the backbone of 'Uppu Kappurambu'. The way his character propels the story forward works majorly for the film. Keerthy Suresh, as Apoorva, may initially test your patience, but you'll eventually warm up to her character. The film ends on a positive note, a message that is much-needed in today's society. Even if you don't prefer taking away a message, 'Uppu Kappurambu' still has a lot to offer.- Ends3 out of 5 stars for 'Uppu Kappurambu'.
