Kannappa movie is a disaster, and sadly, no amount of celebrity cameos or mythological depth could save it. Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh and produced by Vishnu Manchu under 24 Frames Factory, the film had everything going for it—except execution. With a whopping ₹200 crore budget, industry legends like Prabhas, Mohanlal, and Akshay Kumar onboard, and the age-old tale of a devoted Shiva bhakt as the core, expectations were sky-high.
But what we received is nothing short of a mythological mess.
Release Date – 27 June 2025
Prediction – Disaster
🎥 Visuals & Cinematography – A Complete Letdown
For a ₹200 crore film, Kannappa looks worse than a low-budget TV serial.
Issues that stand out:
- Poor lighting in most scenes
- Overuse of green screen
- Weak VFX (even for a devotional film)
- action scenes lack intensity
Even the supposedly “divine” moments feel like rushed edits from a saas-bahu serial set.
🎞️ Trailer: Kannappa Movie is a Disaster
Watching the trailer feels like watching the entire movie. Here’s why:
- Major cameos shown
- Entire plot arc exposed
- No mystery or emotional build-up
- Dialogue and background score fail to excite
Honestly, if you’ve seen the trailer, you’ve seen the film.
