The confrontation, which has now gone viral on social media, shows Ramaswamy standing in the theatre with co-stars, thanking the audience when a woman suddenly approached him. Angered by his portrayal of an antagonist who creates turmoil for the lead couple, she reportedly ran towards Ramaswamy, slapped him, and then aggressively questioned his actions in the film.
"Why did you trouble the lead couple?"
The woman, a member of the audience, was seen not only slapping Ramaswamy but also gripping him by his collar and pushing him, while loudly asking why he chose to “trouble the lead couple.” Ramaswamy appeared visibly shocked as security and cast members, including actors Anjan Ramachandra and Shravani Krishnaveni, intervened to protect him from further confrontation.
Though shaken, Ramaswamy managed to keep his composure as his co-stars quickly stepped in to diffuse the situation. Theatre guards also acted promptly to ensure the actor’s safety, escorting the woman out of the premises while theatre-goers looked on in astonishment.
