Vijay Deverakonda‘s psychological thriller ‘Kingdom’ was released worldwide today (July 31). Directed by Gautham Thinnanuri, the film is receiving a good response from the audience. The film’s plot twists and turns and Vijay’s performance are being praised. The film, which also stars Bhagyashri Borse, Satyadev, and others in important roles, has music composed by Anirudh ravichander.
Controversy sparks debate
At the same time, the film has also sparked a controversy. YouTube reviewer and actor Prashanth, on his X (formerly Twitter) page, wrote, “#Kingdom interval—the movie has portrayed Jaffna Tamils as evil people who oppressed Indians who migrated to Sri Lanka. Why do this, @TheDeverakonda? And you come to Tamil Nadu to promote this movie?” Prashanth’s question on the film’s plot stirred up the debate on social media.
Fans shower their support
But netizens didn’t find it a controversy, and they shared their take on the issue raised. “At the beginning of the film, there is a disclaimer stating that it is based entirely on a fictional world. “Why do you take everything personally? If tomorrow the villain in the movie was named after you, would you complain about that too?” they have said. Furthermore, they have reminded us that this is a movie and that it is clearly stated earlier that it is a fantasy world. However, ‘Kingdom’ stays away from controversy, and we have to wait to see whether the fire ignited by Prashanth will bloom in the future or not.
Strong start at theaters
‘Kingdom,’ released in languages including Tamil and Telugu, is being screened in major theaters in India and abroad. The film, which has gained a lot of popularity among the fans, is expected to cross Rs. 100 crore in its first week, and the opening day number for the film is likely to be over Rs. 30 crore.
