Manchu Vishnu has officially revealed the release date of his much-awaited mythological action drama, Kannappa. The film will hit theaters on April 25, 2025, positioning it in a packed summer movie season. As one of the major pan-India releases, Kannappa is expected to make a massive impact, especially with its stellar cast that includes Akshay Kumar, Prabhas, Mohanlal, and other big names in the industry. Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, known for his work on the iconic Mahabharat series, the film promises a grand scale of production.

However, the movie is set to face stiff competition from multiple big-budget releases in the same period. Prabhas' Raja Saab, directed by Maruthi, is scheduled for release just two weeks earlier, on April 10, 2025. This creates a direct box-office clash between two highly anticipated projects, both vying for a share of the summer crowd. Additionally, Dhanush’s Idli Kadai and HIT 3 are also lined up for release, making the month of April a critical battleground for film success.

With Kannappa set to release in a crowded market, Manchu Vishnu and his father Mohan Babu, who are producing the film, are preparing for a huge release. The film’s unique mythological storyline, combined with its star power, aims to capture a wide audience across India. The film’s release will be closely watched as it faces competition from other major Telugu and pan-India films, ensuring an exciting race at the box office.
