Vishnu Manchu on what wrong with Kannappa

On the edit table, Vishnu said, they had to make the decision to remove some strong scenes because of the VFX. The film, directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, was edited by Anthony. “The editor, director, and I sacrificed some excellent scenes in the film because the VFX was not on the level we expected it to be,” he said.

Vishnu said that this was a learning experience for him. “It’s a massive lesson for me, though. It’s such a lesson that I’ll never repeat that mistake again. But a lot of people watching the film didn’t even realise it. The team was happy that no one cared about it,” said Vishnu.

Kannappa under piracy attack

Meanwhile, on Monday, Vishnu Manchu had lamented that his film was under attack from piracy. Appealing to audiences not to support piracy, Vishnu Manchu had said, "Dear movie lovers, #Kannappa is under attack from piracy. Over 30,000 illegal links have already been taken down. This is heartbreaking. Piracy is theft — plain and simple. We don’t teach our children to steal. Watching pirated content is no different.Please don’t encourage it. Support cinema the right way.Har Har Mahadev."
