Prabhas starrer Darling's re-release marred by fan assault at Hyderabad's Sudarshan Theatre
The much-loved film Darling, starring Prabhas, made its return to the big screen with a special re-release. However, celebrations took a grim turn at Sudarshan Theatre in Hyderabad when a fan was reportedly beaten up by staff after allegedly misbehaving with female employees at the venue. Prabhas, who has been in the limelight with multiple pan-India projects in recent years, continues to enjoy massive fan support, making such screenings highly anticipated events.
As per reports, the incident escalated quickly when theatre management responded to the fan's alleged actions. Staff members intervened, resulting in a physical altercation that disrupted the screening and led to chaos inside the auditorium. The episode was captured on video, which swiftly went viral across social media platforms, prompting heated debates among netizens.
Online reactions remain divided: while some viewers condemned the use of violence by staff, others highlighted the importance of maintaining order and respecting employees in public spaces. Discussions underline the need for discipline at high-profile events like film re-releases, especially when star icons like Prabhas are involved.
With the video still circulating and discussions ongoing, all eyes are now on how theatre management and local authorities will address crowd control and safety at future screenings.
