Releasing globally on Friday, 27 June, the film is set for an unprecedented 5,400+ screen launch, positioning it among the widest Telugu film releases of all time.

A Record-Breaking Launch

4,300+ screens across India, with all premium formats secured. 1,100+ screens overseas, including 200+ US premiere locations — the widest-ever for a devotional Telugu film.

Backed by strong distributor advances and solid early demand, industry chatter suggests Kannappa could cross Rs 100 crore in global gross on day one alone.

A powerhouse ensemble featuring Akshay Kumar as Lord Shiva, with appearances by Mohanlal, Prabhas, and more, adds star strength to this spiritual saga. Enhanced by Wētā Workshop’s VFX and a stirring score by Stephen Devassy, Kannappa promises an immersive experience steeped in mythology, emotion, and spectacle.
