200 Crore Budget, Star-Studded Cast, Yet 'Kannappa' Fails to Ignite Box Office
- •Telugu film 'Kannappa', made with a 200 crore budget, was released in 2025 with high expectations.
- •The film featured a star-studded cast including Vishnu Manchu, Prabhas, Mohanlal, and Akshay Kumar in cameos.
- •Despite the presence of major stars, the film proved to be a disaster due to a weak script and outdated treatment.
- •VFX and special effects, despite the huge budget, failed to impress audiences who have seen films like 'Baahubali' and 'Kantara'.
- •Worldwide, 'Kannappa' only managed to collect 44 crore rupees, failing to recover even half of its production cost.
Why It Matters: Star power and huge budgets cannot save a film with a weak script and poor execution.
