Adipurush: Fan attacked over negative review outside IMAX, Hyderabad

Adipurush, the much-anticipated film starring Prabhas in the lead role, opened in theatres nationwide today, June 16 to mixed reviews from fans on social media platforms. A disturbing incident, however, emerged amid the outpouring of praise, highlighting the volatile nature of fan culture in Hyderabad IMAX Theater.

A video of a person discussing Adipurush surfaced on Twitter. In the viral clip, he can be seen saying, “They kept all the monsters from the play station games in this one. Except for Hanuman, background score and some 3D shots here and there, there is nothing else.” When asked about Prabhas’ performance as Raghav, he said, “Absolutely doesn’t suit, in the get up. In Baahubali, he was like a king and there was a royalty. Seeing the royalty in that, they took him for this role. Om Raut did not show Prabhas properly.”
