Suspense crime, Digital Desk : The wait is over for one of the most ambitious films of the year, "Kannappa," and the first reactions are flooding social media. Led by a powerful performance from Vishnu Manchu, the mythological epic is being celebrated by audiences for its grand scale and devotional heart.
Early reviews from moviegoers on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) are overwhelmingly positive. Netizens are showering praise on Vishnu Manchu for his intense and dedicated portrayal of the titular mythic warrior. However, the recurring theme in many reviews is the film's deep spiritual core, with many calling it a "must-watch experience" and a "divine treat for all Shiv Bhakts" (devotees of Lord Shiva).
???? Last 40 minutes of #Kannappa are PURELY SPECTACULAR! ????

Never seen anything like this on Indian screens before.
This isn’t just a film —
It’s for Shiv Bhakts,
For those who believe in Shiv Leela,
And for every proud Sanatani. ????????
???? Video review dropping soon……
Based on the legendary tale of Kannappa Nayanar, a fierce hunter who became one of Lord Shiva's most ardent devotees, the film boasts a truly epic canvas. Its star power is immense, featuring highly anticipated cameo appearances from superstars like Prabhas, Akshay Kumar, and Mohanlal, adding to the film's grandeur.

REVIEWS????#Kannappa is visually grand with a powerful mythological core. Prabhas, Mohanlal & Akshay Kumar shine in cameos, and Rajinikanth's praise speaks volumes. But some VFX scenes fall flat, and the pacing drags in parts.

Just watched #Kanappa, and I still can’t shake off the last 30 minutes from my mind. The only time I’ve felt something this intense was during the climax of #Kantara. Audiences - especially devotees of Lord Shiva will be left in tears.… pic.twitter.com/MqPUdW9KVq
