In the background, we can see lush green greens and a clear sky. Announcing the wrap, he wrote, "Kannappa is a film being produced in New Zealand with 600 Hollywood and India's biggest actors, Thailand and New Zealand technicians, Vishnu Manchu in the lead. We are returning to India after completing the first schedule of 90 days in the wonderful locations of New Zealand with the blessings of the Lord, Shirdi Sainath."

First look poster of Kannaappa

Based on the mythological story of Kannappa, a staunch devotee of Lord Shiva, the makers unveiled the first poster last month. In the poster, Vishnu portrays a role of a warrior and can be seen aiming his arrow towards an imposing lingam set against the backdrop of lush green mountains. The poster doesn't reveal the face of the actor and gives a glimpse of the film.

"Step into the world of 𝐊𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐚 where the journey of an atheist Warrior to becoming Lord Shiva’s ultimate devotee comes to life," read the caption.
