Kannappa vs Maa

Both Kannappa and Maa are set to release in theatres this Friday, and interestingly, both of them have their roots in mythology. Kannappa tells the story of an atheist who becomes the most devout follower of Lord Shiva after facing certain situations in life.

While Vishnu Manchu plays the lead in the film, Akshay will be seen essaying the role of Lord Shiva in Kannappa. The film also stars Kajal Aggarwal, Prabhas, Mohanlal and others in key roles.

Maa, on the other hand, is a mythological horror drama, highlighting the lengths to which a mother can go to save her daughter from the clutches of some dark other-worldly forces. The film explores the themes of mother's love and Kajol will also be seen channelling the fury of Maa Kali to save her daughter.
