Darshan’s latest film The Devil released on Thursday across Karnataka and opened to massive crowds. Early morning shows registered strong occupancy, with several theatres reporting houseful status. Despite increased ticket prices, fans turned up in large numbers, proving that Darshan’s stardom remains intact even amid ongoing controversies.
However, there is a major twist: no one is allowed to post ratings or reviews for The Devil. Following an appeal from the makers, the team secured a court order restricting all online reviews, ratings, and comments. As a result, platforms like BookMyShow have disabled the rating feature for this film. The makers reportedly want to prevent negative or misleading comments during the crucial opening days.
With formal reviews blocked, early audience reactions on social media are the only indicators of public response. Initial word-of-mouth appears mixed—while some viewers are impressed by Darshan’s dual-role performance, others feel the film doesn’t fully deliver its promise.
Bengaluru multiplexes have added a significant number of shows on day one, many of which are running full. Theatres across the state are buzzing with cutouts, posters, and enthusiastic fan celebrations, showcasing Darshan’s massive support base.
Meanwhile, Darshan remains in Parappana Agrahara Central Prison. He was arrested in the Renukaswamy murder case, accused of involvement in the abduction and assault that led to the victim’s death. Though he briefly received medical bail for back pain, he later returned to custody and continues to remain in jail as the investigation progresses.
With Darshan unable to participate in promotions, The Devil is releasing solely on the strength of fan support. For his followers, watching the film has become their only way to see him on screen during this period.
