The re-release of ‘Darling,’ starring Prabhas, led to an unexpected incident in Hyderabad. Fans were all excited to celebrate the film’s 16th anniversary, but an unexpected incident occurred in a theatre. A video has gone viral on the social media showing a theatre employee beating a Prabhas fan with a stick. The video raised serious concerns among filmgoers. Those who came to celebrate excitedly witnessed an unexpected incident, and many questioned why this happened in the theatre.
Viral video shows shocking assault on Prabhas fan inside the theatre
According to Telugu One, the problem occurred when a song was played during one show but skipped in another. Fans complained that one particular song was played in one of the shows and skipped in the other. Apparently, this sparked an argument between fans and theatre management. During the confrontational argument over playing a specific song requested by the fans, a staff member hit a fan who was insisting on it. The video clip clearly shows a fan being hit by a staff member, which has outraged netizens. Netizens are still scrutinising the video, claiming that even if a conflict occurred between the fans and the management took place, no one needed to be hit.
Conflicting claims emerge behind the attack on Prabhas admirer
But there are also different opinions. Some say the issue was not about the song. According to them, the fan was inebriated and misbehaved toward female staff, provoking the violence from the staff’s side. The truth of the incident is not yet confirmed. The viral incident shows the attack, but not the entire picture, making it impossible to know the real reason.
Fans demand accountability after the theatre attack incident goes viral
This incident has drawn extreme responses from the people. Most of the netizens opine that theatre management should optimize patience and tolerance instead of resorting to violence, as audiences drive cinemas, and such incidents deter them from attending. Some others believe that fans must follow the rules in public places. However, the ‘Darling’ re-release was partly based on the nostalgia of the Prabhas fan base, but unfortunately, this incident has marred that joy and brought theatre safety into question.
