Padmaavat fever has not just limited to the North, but it proved its mania down the South as the film opened to massive openings across major cities in the South.
The advance bookings of the film were so high that the tickets have been sold like hot cakes. With holiday season (Friday being Republic Day, Saturday and Sunday being weekend), the advance bookings were so full.
In Hyderabad, the film’s tickets in prominent multiplexes have been sold out already. After a long gap, local exhibitors are said to be seeing full enthusiasm among film lovers to watch a film. With Sankranthi films too turned out to be disappointment, Padmaavat is now compensating the taste buds of the film lovers and wiping out the bad memory of Sankranthi releases such as Agnyaathavaasi.
Thumbs Down For Controversy, Thumbs Up for Movie
Released amidst controversies and threats, audiences who have watched the film are opining that ‘Thumbs Down’ for the controversy as the film’s content is no where demeaning Rajput community or their sentiments. In fact, the dialogues of Maharawal Ratan Singh (Shahid Kapoor) about Rajputs and their ethics are clap-worthy.
Despite having its own shortcomings, Padmaavat got thumbs up from movie lovers cutting across the regions. This is a welcome move. On the whole, audiences say thumbs down for the controversy and thumbs up for the movie.
