Vishnu Manchu’s much-anticipated pan-Indian film Kannappa is gearing up for a grand release on June 27, 2025. Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, the film is a mythological and devotional drama with high expectations riding on its massive scale and ensemble cast.

As part of his nationwide promotional tour, Vishnu recently interacted with the Telugu media. During the interaction, he revealed an interesting wish — if he ever had the opportunity to remake one of his legendary father Mohan Babu’s films, he would choose the cult classic Assembly Rowdy, which was a box office blockbuster in its time. Vishnu further said that if the project ever takes shape, he would want Srikanth Odela, the acclaimed director of Dasara, to helm the remake.

Meanwhile, buzz around Kannappa’s pre-release event is heating up online. Rumours are strong that Prabhas will be attending the event as the chief guest, further raising anticipation for the film.

The movie boasts a power-packed cast featuring Mohan Babu, Mohanlal, Prabhas, Kajal Aggarwal, Akshay Kumar, and others in key roles. Produced by Mohan Babu, Kannappa is being positioned as a visually rich, devotional epic with pan-India appeal. Stay tuned — the film is shaping up to be one of the biggest mythological dramas of 2025.
