Kannappa : Sampath Bhillu introduced as fearsome ‘Chandudu’ 

The Manchu family is poised to make a significant mark in the film industry with their highly anticipated project, Kannappa. This grand production, with an impressive budget of approximately Rs. 100 crores, is being spearheaded by the Manchu Mohan Babu, often referred to as the “Collection King” of Telugu cinema. The film features Manchu Vishnu in a prominent lead role and it is generating considerable excitement due to its ambitious scope and high-profile cast.
Set against a historical backdrop, Kannappa is expected to be a cinematic spectacle, drawing interest from fans across various film industries. The film’s cast includes notable stars such as Prabhas, along with other top names from Bollywood and Kollywood, promising a diverse and star-studded ensemble. The directorial reins are held by Mukesh Kumar Singh, who has garnered acclaim for his work on the Mahabharata serial, ensuring that the film will have a strong narrative and visual appeal.
As the film progresses through its production phase, which is currently moving at a rapid pace, the makers are gearing up for a planned release in December. In the lead-up to the release, the team has been progressively revealing details about the cast and their respective roles, heightening the anticipation surrounding the project.
The latest revelation from the Kannappa team is the casting of actor Sampath Ram Bhillu as Jati Dora Chandudu. This character is depicted as the fierce leader of the Bhilla tribe, a group known for their formidable presence and traditional stone axes. The tribe is portrayed as a menacing force, with their reputation for terror underscored by their fearsome practices. The newly released poster introduces Chandudu with the striking tagline, “Abhishekam with the blood of enemies,” emphasising the intense and dramatic nature of his role.
With its substantial budget, star-studded cast, and historical setting, Kannappa is set to be a landmark film for the Manchu family and is eagerly awaited by audiences. The combination of a high-profile production team and a compelling narrative promises to make this film a major event in the coming months.
