Sharing her frustration on Instagram, the fan claimed that despite multiple complaints, the problem was not resolved during the screening. She added that her family had spent several hours travelling and watching the film, only to leave disappointed.
The fan wrote, “We had a worst experience with CINEPOLIC DSL VIRTUE MALL UPPAL for PEDDI movie It was played without audio. We have been complaining them n number of times.
