Manchu Manoj wishes 'Kannappa' team, omits brother Vishnu amid feud
What's the story
The Telugu mythological action drama Kannappa is creating a buzz ahead of its release. In a recent social media post, actor Manchu Manoj sent a message of support to the film's team and his father, Mohan Babu. However, he notably did not mention his brother and the film's lead actor, Vishnu Manchu. This omission doesn't come as a surprise since the brothers are currently locked in a feud.

Family feud
Feud between the brothers
The film had recently made headlines when a hard drive containing crucial footage went missing. During a press conference in Chennai, Manchu hinted that Manoj might be involved in the theft. He said, "You all know what happened within our family. We tried to reach Manoj through our friends, but to no avail." "We don't know if they stole it or acted upon someone's orders." Even though the star's team filed a police complaint, there haven't been any updates yet.
