Kangana made an appeal on social media, urging audiences to opt for the theatrical experience for ‘Tejas’ rather than waiting for its OTT release. She posted a video with the caption, “Even before Covid, the number of people attending theaters was dwindling, and post-Covid, the decline has been rapid. Many theaters are facing closure, and despite offering free tickets and various attractive deals, the decline in audience turnout continues. I request everyone to watch films in theaters and relish the experience with family and friends, as otherwise, theaters may not be able to sustain themselves. Thank you.”
