Since it stars some of the greatest names in Indian cinema in important roles, Kannappa is one of the most popular movies of recent years. Key roles are played by people like Mohanlal, Prabhas, and Akshay Kumar. The movie lived up to the buzz and received a good start at the box office with favorable word of mouth.

The first weekend's earnings for Kannappa

The fantasy drama reached the Rs 50 crore gross worldwide mark in just three days after finishing its first weekend. For a Vishnu Manchu movie, these figures are remarkable. Part of the collections came from the Telugu version, and the Hindi collections have seen an unexpected increase.

The American collection is nice as well, but the true test starts on Monday, and we'll have to wait and see how the movie does during the week. The movie, which stars Preity Mukundan in the lead role, was directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh. The movie's release has given her a sizable fan base, which is noteworthy considering the ensemble cast.

Vishnu Manchu, who also produced the film, has stated that Kannappa will not be released on OTT within 10 weeks of its theatrical release. He is playing the waiting game, seeking a better deal, and has openly mentioned this in the press.

Vishnu Manchu is often a target of trolls, but for Kannappa, he has received only praise, especially for his performance in the climax. Prabhas enters in the second half of the film, and from there, the story rises to another level with an emotionally charged climax. 

Vishnu Manchu on Kannappa's box office collections

Kannappa has been mounted on a massive budget, and Vishnu says he did not make the film for box office numbers and is not overly concerned about collections. He is content with the revenue generated through post-theatrical rights.

As no other big films were released alongside Kannappa, it faces little competition this week. However, it still needs to post strong numbers to remain in the safe zone.
