In a major blow to actor-producer Manchu Vishnu’s dream project, Kannappa, someone stole crucial content from the film, causing serious concern just weeks before its theatrical release. The movie team has entered the final stage of post-production and planned to release the film on June 27. However, the sudden theft of a hard drive carrying sensitive content has disrupted their schedule and triggered a full-scale police investigation.
Hyderabad Team Loses Kannappa Content in Shocking Theft
The problem began when HIV Studios in Mumbai couriered a hard drive to the production office in Filmnagar, Hyderabad. This drive contained important VFX content for Kannappa. On May 25, office boy Raghu received the package. But instead of submitting it to the production team, he handed it over to a woman named Charitha without notifying anyone.
After the incident, both Raghu and Charitha vanished, which caused panic among the production crew. The team at Twenty Four Frames Factory Pvt. Ltd. immediately approached the Filmnagar Police Station and filed an official complaint about the stolen content.
Kannappa Theft May Be Part of a Conspiracy
Executive Producer Reddy Vijay Kumar believes that Raghu and Charitha acted as part of a larger plot to sabotage the film. Police officers are now investigating the possibility of a conspiracy that may involve others with malicious intent to hurt the film’s success. Investigators have started tracking the suspects and are trying to recover the stolen hard drive as quickly as possible.
Star-Studded Cast Fuels Expectations for Kannappa
Director Mukesh Kumar Singh is leading the film, which features a powerful cast including Mohan Babu, R. Sarathkumar, Brahmanandam, Kaushal Manda, Mukesh Rishi, Preity Mukhundhan, and several others. The film has already created buzz with its grand visuals, mythological storyline, and Manchu Vishnu’s passionate involvement.
The Kannappa content theft has shocked Tollywood and thrown the production into crisis mode. With police investigations underway, fans are hoping the team recovers the drive soon and keeps the release date on track.
