Fauzi Team in Damage Control Mode After Glimpse?

The backlash to Fauzi‘s birthday glimpse appears to have triggered a rethink within the team. Industry gossip suggests that the makers are considering dropping some of the scenes featured in the glimpse and changing a few narrative portions. The reaction to the portrayal of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose is said to have made the unit take a closer look at how certain portions are presented.

Fauzi is one of Prabhas‘ most awaited projects. The film was initially expected to release in December but was postponed due to delays in production work. The makers unveiled a glimpse on Prabhas’ birthday to build excitement, but the portrayal of Netaji sparked severe backlash and turned the promotional moment into a controversy.

Now, the talk is that the team does not want the controversy to affect the film’s final presentation. Some scenes shown in the glimpse may reportedly be removed, while changes to the narration are also being discussed. Whether these changes are a direct response to the backlash or part of the film’s regular editing process is not clear.

The makers have not officially commented on the reports. For now, the industry buzz is that the glimpse may not represent what audiences will eventually see in Fauzi.
