\r\nKeerthy Suresh on limitations of legacy. Keerthy Suresh, daughter of yesteryear actress Menaka created a niche for herself with her performances and even went on to win the national award for her performance in the role of legendary actress Savitri in her biopic, Mahanati Savitri.\r\nNow, speaking to scribes, she shared her thoughts on legacy in the industry and its limitations. She said \"I think legacies have nothing to do with my choices, you know. The scripts that I pick, the genres that I want to explore, they are solely driven upon my own instincts.\"\r\nShe added \'\"And, of course, there is a certain sense of responsibility, a certain level of expectation that comes with this. But I don\'t think anybody coming from a background like that should take such pressure. They should never take such pressure.\"\r\nAbout legacy, she shared \"See, legacy is definitely a foundation. It does give me a route, yes. But it is not my limitation. It does not define any specialty, right?\"\r\nShe went on to add \"And probably the part of my journey that I really got inspired from my legacy would be choosing to be an artist. And that came from my mother.\"\r\n

Prabhas fan wants to sue Manchu Vishnu for Kannappa. Manchu Vishnu's Kannappa directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh got decent reviews from the critics and movie lovers alike.

The film has powerful cameos from Prabhas, Mohan Lal, Akshay Kumar and Kajal. However, a fan of Prabhas got frustrated and vented his feelings saying he want to sue Manchu Vishnu.

Sharing his feelings, he posted He said, &ldquo;I will file a case against him (Vishnu) for giving false information. What did he say in the press? Where is Shiva in the first half? I am a Prabhas fan, and I came here after watching the Bhakta Kannappa movie.&rdquo; His biggest gripe however seemed to be that Kannappa wasn't like the 1976 film Bhakta Kannappa, which starred Prabhas&rsquo; uncle Krishnam Raju.

He said, &ldquo;His family gave you the rights to make this film. If it&rsquo;s your dream project, you can&rsquo;t change the film however you want. He gave false information in the trailer and in the press. When you promoted the movie as Bhakta Kannappa, why are you showing your heroism? Show the devotion instead. We came for Prabhas and watched him for 20 minutes in the second half; that&rsquo;s enough.&rdquo;

Another fan however differed saying &ldquo;Babu Disclaimer chudakunda cinema ni elaa tappu battaali ane pani lo unnattunnaadu!! @themohanbabu antha base voice lo cheppaaru ga, Bhakta Kannappa story ni research chesi dani aadharam tho rasukunna kalpitha kadha ani. (You are just looking for fault without paying attention to the disclaimer. Mohan Babu says at the beginning of the film that they researched the story of Bhakta Kannappa and made this fictional film)&rdquo;

Dynamic Star Vishnu Manchu&rsquo;s dream project Kannappa hit the screens yesterday to unanimous positive reviews from all corners. The team celebrated the success, thanking the audience and the media.\r\nWhile speaking at the event, Dr. M. Mohan Babu said: \"With the blessings of Lord Shiva, Kannappa has achieved this remarkable success. Back in our time, we never held so many events for a single film. It\'s been 50 years since I started my journey as an actor, and my fans have stood by me through every phase, propelling me forward. I will forever be indebted to them. After the success of Kannappa, I&rsquo;ve been receiving countless congratulatory calls. I wonder what I can give back for all this love. Everyone poured their heart and soul into this film. My heartfelt congratulations to each and every one who contributed. I truly believe this film was made with divine permission. It\'s only because of everyone\'s encouragement that we\'ve come this far. If not for Vinay, Kannappa wouldn\'t exist. My heartfelt thanks to every individual who worked on this film.\"\r\nVishnu Manchu said: \"For artists and producers like us, the audience is like God. It is only through their love and support that we reach these heights. The response to Kannappa has been overwhelming. It&rsquo;s nothing short of divine grace. My deepest thanks to the audience for making this such a grand success. The movie is doing exceptionally well at the box office.\"\r\nMukesh Kumar Singh said: \"Everyone is showering love on Kannappa. Many still haven&rsquo;t seen the film, and I urge all of them to watch it. Mohan Babu garu and Vishnu garu have dedicated the past ten years to this project. Everyone involved gave their all. I thank each and every one of them.\"\r\nMythri Shashi said: \"Kannappa is running houseful shows everywhere, especially in C Centres. After films like Salaar and Pushpa, to see housefulls for Kannappa in places like Kalwakurthy is extraordinary. The film is creating a storm in both multiplexes and single screens. I believe it will go on to achieve even greater success. I was moved to tears watching the climax. Vishnu garu delivered a phenomenal performance. This is a must-watch for the current generation. Thank you to Mohan Babu garu and Vishnu garu for bringing such a film to life.\"\r\nExecutive Producer Vinay Maheshwari said: &ldquo;This has been an incredible journey. While many have spoken about Mohan Babu garu and Vishnu Manchu, for me, the bond is more emotional than professional. Kannappa is truly a phenomenal film. The climax is beyond expectations, deeply moving and unforgettable. Everyone who worked on this project gave it their absolute best. Vishnu has treated this like his dream project, dedicating nearly eight years to its development, from writing to pre-production. This film will be remembered for generations. With Kannappa, Vishnu marks his arrival as a major star.&rdquo;\r\nArpit Ranka said: \"I&rsquo;ve been part of Kannappa\'s journey with Vishnu and Mohan Babu garu for the past three years, and I&rsquo;ve never seen them this happy. That alone speaks to how successful the film has been. They faced a lot of difficulties along the way. Vishnu, in particular, went through countless hardships. Lord Shiva often tests his devotees, but in the end, rewards them with success like this. Everyone has been moved to tears by the climax. Films like Kannappa are rare. I urge everyone to watch it.\"\r\nShiva Balaji said: \"Words fail me when I see the outpouring of love for Kannappa. Vishnu garu has put in tremendous effort for this project, and he deserves all the happiness going forward. His performances as Arjuna, Thinnadu, and Kannappa are extraordinary.\r\nEveryone worked tirelessly, day and night, for this film. The team deserves to enjoy this success. Those of us who worked on this film consider ourselves lucky, and even watching it is a blessing. Parents should definitely show this film to their children.\"\r\nActor Kaushal said: \"Some people are giving reviews without even watching Kannappa. But if you watch it with Lord Shiva in your heart, you\'ll surely love it. The character Thinnadu is full of energy, while Kannappa is full of devotion. No matter how many times you watch Kannappa, it never gets old. Mohan Babu garu took great care of all of us. I hope this film brings Vishnu garu the kind of success that will go down in history.\"

The highly anticipated film between Suriya and director Venky Atluri has undergone a significant script change. Initially, the film was planned as a biopic regarding Sanjay Gandhi, focusing on the invention of the Maruti car in India. However, due to delays in acquiring the rights and Suriya's recent involvement in two biopics, Soorarai Pottru and Jai Bhim, the project took a different turn.

Venky Atluri pitched a family story to Suriya, which the actor liked even without a full climax. The new script promises to be a proper family movie with nice human emotions. According to the director, Suriya's character will be similar to the most loved Sanjay Ramaswamy from Ghajini. This change in direction has generated more interest as Suriya is not seen in such kind of a role for a while.

With the script change, the film is expected to be a family entertainer that will appeal to a wide audience. Venky Atluri's track record of delivering successful films with Dhanush and Dulquer Salmaan has generated high expectations for this project. Fans are eagerly waiting to see how Suriya's character will unfold in this new story.

The Suriya-Venky Atluri collaboration has been highly anticipated, and the script change has added a new layer of excitement. With Suriya's massive fan base and Venky Atluri's proven track record, the film is expected to be a major hit. Mamitha Baiju is playing as female lead. Fans are eagerly waiting for more updates on the film, including the release date and other details.
