Drops of water fell on the audience from the roof, surprising them. Some attendees left the theater.

Despite the rain, the organizers initially continued the Kalki show. Audience members argued with the management about the potential danger of a short circuit, but the management responded sarcastically, telling them to watch the movie or leave. The audience then informed the police, leading to the show's cancellation. Some spectators were concerned about getting refunds.

Directed by Nag Ashwin and starring Prabhas, 'Kalki 2898 AD' was released on June 27 and has been a box office hit, recently surpassing Rs.1000 crores in collections. With no notable films currently in the Telugu industry and ticket prices normalizing, fans are eager to watch the movie again.
