'Kannappa,' a Telugu mythological action drama starring Vishnu Manchu, has officially hit theaters on June 27, 2025. Helmed by Mukesh Kumar Singh and produced by veteran actor Mohan Babu, the film tells the story of Kannappa, a tribal hunter who becomes a devoted follower of Lord Shiva. Initial audience reactions have been shared on platform X (formerly known as Twitter), providing insight into how viewers are reacting to this fantasy drama, which has a star-studded cast. After its trailer launch and songs, this film generated enormous buzz amongst the fans and cinema goers; however, after its initial release, it has received mixed responses from sections of netizens. While fans of Prabhas, Akshay Kumar and Mohanlal are praising them for their dynamic screen presence and the second half's last 30 minutes, many have criticised it for its poorly written first half.
