Earlier, a bunch of South superstar Prabhas’s loyal fans thrashed a man for giving a negative review of the Indian film outside the theatres.
Reportedly, the person in his review said, “They kept all the monsters from the PlayStation games in this one. Except for Hanuman, background score and some 3D shots here and there, there is nothing else.”
Moreover, he added about Prabhas’ performance, “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.”
An Indian news agency reported that the makers are planning to make a sequel and the idea has been pitched to Om Raut and Prabhas, who is willing to be part of the second instalment.
