According to a Hindustan Times' report, several persons were hurt. However, police have disputed the allegations. A public relations professional who attended the event stated that the crowd became out of control once the stars began throwing items at them.
“Fans made a scramble to catch the items that were thrown towards them, which broke the barricades that were supposed to hold them back,” said Anand Krishna, representative of the PR company which organised the event. “The actors left the show midway much before the scheduled time,” a person involved in the organising committee said.
The adversary in 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan' is Prithviraj Sukumaran, who appears with Kumar and Shroff. In addition to the stars, Sonakshi Sinha, Manushi Chhillar, and Alaya F will play important parts in the film.
