Akshay Kumar teases Vishnu Manchu at Kanappa teaser launch, video goes viral

A few days back, Vishnu Manchu shared why he chose New Zealand over locations in India to film his upcoming historical epic Kannappa, which is based on a devoted follower of Lord Shiva. The Ginna actor again spoke about his experience working there. During the conversation, Akshay Kumar interrupted him, jokingly asking, "Kitne dino ke liye gaye the?" (For how many days did you go?)

Vishnu replied, "Main lagbhag 5 months ke liye wahan tha." (I was there for almost five months.) Akshay playfully teased him, saying, "Toh Shiv ji wahan nahi aaye the. Mujhe leke kyun nahi gaye? Wahan nahi pahunch paye. Mere andar bhi Shiv hai, mujhe kyun nahi le gaye?" (So, Lord Shiva didn’t appear there? Why didn’t you take me? I couldn’t make it there. Shiva is within me too, so why didn’t you take me?)

The light-hearted exchange had everyone laughing, and the video quickly went viral, with many poking fun at Vishnu.

Most of the people who acted in this movie did so because of the love they have for my father." He expressed his gratitude to Mohanlal and Prabhas for their contributions to the film.
