Vishnu Manchu’s Kannappa, starring Akshay Kumar, Mohanlal, and Prabhas in very promising cameos, has kickstarted its advance booking in India and the US, but the mythological action drama has yet not picked up pace despite only 48 hours left for the film to arrive in the theaters!

Will Vishnu Manchu Beat Dhanush?

It would be interesting to see if Vishnu Manchu’s film beat the last big Telugu arrival in the theaters – Kuberaa. Dhanush‘s film also starring Nagarjuna, had a lukewarm start at the US box office with the advance premiere sales!

Kannappa registered advance sales of $10,3K for 263 locations in the USA, with only 486 sold tickets. With 2 days remaining for the premiere in the USA, it seems impossible for the film to cross Kuberaa’s pre-sales in the territory!

Kannappa Hindi Trailer Review Ft. Baahubalified Prabhas & Mahadevified Akshay Kumar!(Photo Credit –YouTube)

After Baahubali witnessed a success like never before, two things happened. A – Baahubalification of Prabhas, making him look larger than life and almost heavenly in every frame; B. Baahubalified Films – films that rely heavily on VFX, and most of them are inspired brutally by Baahubali! Kannappa is another grand offering starring a barrage of stars, and the trailer has left me in chaos!

First of all, I am also done with the Mahadevification of Akshay Kumar! After Omg 2, I am done witnessing him as Mahadev! The trailer made me remember some school skits that students perform brilliantly, but at the end of the day, it is a school skit!

The statue, depicting the two megastars in an iconic pose from the beloved Yash Raj Films 1995 romantic comedy – which follows two non-resident Indians and their romance across Europe and India – will mark the beginning of the film’s 30th anniversary celebrations. It will be positioned on the eastern terrace outside the Odeon cinema — a fitting location as the Leicester Square setting features prominently in the film when the characters first cross paths.

“It’s fantastic to have the opportunity to add to our trail Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, who are such titans of international cinema,” said Mark Williams, deputy chief executive...

Actor Raj Tarun found himself embroiled in another personal controversy after a woman filed a complaint alleging he had promised to marry her, even claiming he secretly wed her.

Kannappa Movie Release Delayed Updates (Photo Credit – Instagram)

The much-anticipated Telugu film Kannappa, starring Vishnu Manchu and produced by Mohan Babu, has been generating buzz. It is a fantasy film rooted in mythology. Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, the film is based on the legendary devotee of Lord Shiva, Kannappa, and was initially scheduled for an April release next year.

However, recent developments suggest a possible postponement. The reason is that there are disputes in Manchu’s family.

With Manchu Vishnu preoccupied with family matters, particularly conflicts surrounding Mb University and family properties, speculation has arisen that he might not be able to oversee Kannappa’s post-production work effectively. No official announcement about a delay has been made so far, but industry insiders suggest that the film’s timeline could be affected.

Mumbai, Jan 5 (Ians) In a moment that transcends time, Vishnu Manchu has proudly unveiled the cinematic debut of his five-year-old son, Avram, in the monumental actioner ‘Kannappa’.

This revelation not only marks a significant entry into the world of cinema, but stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the Manchu family, spanning three remarkable generations, guided by the torchbearer, the legendary actor, Dr M. Mohan Babu.

Set against the picturesque landscapes of New Zealand, the 90-day shoot unfolds with a stellar star cast, elevating ‘Kannappa’ to a cinematic spectacle. Though names remain undisclosed, the anticipation grows for the unveiling of a stellar ensemble.

Avram’s role takes centrestage, infusing youthful exuberance into the family’s cinematic narrative. Vishnu Manchu reflects on the emotional depth of the project, stating, “This venture, ‘Kannappa’, holds profound meaning for me. Witnessing my son, Avram, play a pivotal role is a source of immense pride.

Actor-writer Vishnu Manchu has grand plans for big-budget Indian epic “Kannappa.”

The film revisits the folk tale of Kannappa, an atheist hunter who became a devotee of Hindu god Shiva and plucked out his eyes in an act of extreme devotion. The story was previously filmed in the Kannada and Telugu languages as “Bedara Kannappa” and “Kalahasti Mahatyam” in 1954, both starring Rajkumar; in the Hindi language as “Shiv Bhakta” (1955), starring Shahu Modak; in Telugu again as “Bhakta Kannappa” (1976), starring Krishnam Raju; and in Kannada again as “Shiva Mecchida Kannappa” (1988), starring Rajkumar, Shiva Rajkumar and Puneeth Rajkumar.

Manchu plays the title role in the latest interpretation of the story, written by him and directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, best known for his television adaptations of Indian epics “Ramayana” and “Mahabharata.” Telugu film industry stalwarts Prabhas (the Baahubali franchise) and Mohan Babu (“Shaakuntalam”), who also produces, Kannada industry megastar Shiva Rajkumar (“Ghost...

Piper Laurie, the three-time Oscar-nominated actress known for her performances in The Hustler and Carrie and for her outlandish two-character, two-gender turn on the original Twin Peaks, died Saturday morning in Los Angeles. She was 91.

Laurie had not been well for some time, her rep, Marion Rosenberg, told The Hollywood Reporter.

An Emmy winner who was nominated nine times during her career, Laurie spent three years as a child in a sanatorium, broke free from her original contract at Universal Pictures, once went 15 years without making a movie and starred in the original production — for live television — of Days of Wine and Roses.

In Learning to Live Out Loud, her frank 2011 memoir, she revealed that she lost her virginity to Ronald Reagan and that she had slept with Mel Gibson when she was twice his age. Laurie wrote the book because “my life had many secrets, and it was wearing,...

In the West (and indeed by me), Ringo Lam is perhaps best known as the director of Jean-Claude Van Damme vehicles like Maximum Risk and the underrated In Hell, but like most of the Hong Kong filmmakers who started doing English language work in the ’90s and ’00s, he had a long history in action movies in his home country. He directed many contemporary action films, notably City on Fire, which Quentin Tarantino took liberal inspiration from for parts of Reservoir Dogs.

Burning Paradise, made in 1994, is Lam’s sole wuxia film. A remake of 1965’s Temple of the Red Lotus, starring the legendary Jimmy Wang Yu, it follows Fong Sai-yuk (Willie Chi Tian-Sheng), a survivor of the sacking of Shaolin Temple by the Manchu army. However, he is captured, along with a young girl, Dau Dau (Carman Lee Yeuk-Tung), who helped him and his master hide from the Manchu.

The inspiration for Marvel Comics super-villain 'The Mandarin', 'Dr. Fu Manchu' was introduced in a series of 14 detective novels by Brit author Sax Rohmer, also appearing in television, radio, comic strips, comic books and movies, as portrayed by Boris Karloff and Christopher Lee:

"...the supervillain's evil plots of world-domination...

"...are marked by his extensive use...

"...of thugs, street gangs and compromised members of elite secret societies to do his dirty work...

"...or by using fungi, bacilli and other chemical weapons to slowly destroy humanity..."

Christopher Lee played the character in "The Face of Fu Manchu" (1965), "The Brides of Fu Manchu" (1966), "The Vengeance of Fu Manchu" (1967), "The Blood of Fu Manchu" (1968) and "The Castle of Fu Manchu" (1969).
