The team behind the upcoming mythological pan- Indian epic 'Kannappa' unveiled a special character glimpse of
Mohanlal as Kirata
, marking a memorable birthday tribute to the actor.
A mythical surprise from 'Kannappa' makers
Taking to their official social media handles, the makers shared the video with a heartfelt message, 'Happy Birthday to the one and only #Lalettan — the legend, Shri Mohanlal Garu! The Complete Actor, and the embodiment of strength and divinity. As Kirata in #Kannappa , you're not just portraying a role—you're creating history.'
Epic role in an epic tale
Mohanlal's character, Kirata, plays a key role in the cinematic adaptation of the legend of Bhakta Kannappa—a devoted follower of Lord Shiva.
The story traces Kannappa's journey from an atheist hunter to a devout Shiva bhakt, culminating in an ultimate act of sacrifice. Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, Kannappa stars Vishnu Manchu in the titular role, with Mohanlal's divine presence adding grandeur to the mythological narrative.
Originally slated for an earlier release, the film is now set to hit theatres on June 27, 2025, with post-production efforts being extended.
