The clashes between the Manchu brothers, Vishnu and Manoj, have taken an unexpected turn following the recent theft of the harddisk that is rumored to have crucial footage stored in it. Kannappa actor and producer Vishnu Manchu today made shocking allegations against his brother, Manchu Manoj.
During a media interaction while promoting Kannappa in Chennai on Friday, Vishnu alleged that the two culprits, Raghu and Charitha, who reportedly stole the harddisk, are part of Manchu Manoj’s staff. However, Vishnu went on to say that he has no clue if the culprits stole the disk upon someone’s orders.
Vishnu further said that the harddisk is password encrypted and that it’s very difficult to crack the password. “In case the culprits manage to leak the footage, I urge everyone to not watch the leaked content. About 70 minutes of color-graded footage that was sent from a Mumbai facility to our father’s Film Nagar residence was stolen by Raghu more than a month ago. I suspect Raghu is employed by my brother, Manchu Manoj. But I’m not sure if Raghu stole the harddisk at the behest of my brother’s command,” Vishnu added.
Also starring Prabhas, Mohanlal, Akshay Kumar, Kajal Aggarwal, Mohan Babu, and others in prominent roles, Kannappa is directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh. The film is scheduled for release on June 27, 2025.
