Urvashi Rautela’s absence from Daaku Maharaaj poster sparks hilarious reaction online

For fans eagerly awaiting the OTT release of the Telugu film Daaku Maharaaj, there was one glaring omission that has sent the internet into a frenzy: Urvashi Rautela’s absence from the film’s promotional poster. Despite her significant role in the movie, which features Nandamuri Balakrishna and Bobby Deol, the Bollywood actress was notably left off the promotional material shared by Netflix India South. This has led to widespread speculation and plenty of humorous reactions from fans online. The poster, which was revealed last week to announce the film’s OTT release date, caught the attention of many, but what truly stood out was the absence of Rautela, who had been one of the film’s most talked-about stars. The song Dabidi Dibidi, featuring Urvashi and Nandamuri, became a viral sensation thanks to its catchy hook step, further elevating the film’s profile among a wider audience. Despite this, her omission from the poster has baffled fans and sparked a hilarious series of online comments.
Rautela, who has consistently been at the center of the film’s promotional activities, including making headlines for her comments on the film’s box office success (reportedly earning Rs 105 crore), has played an instrumental role in generating buzz for Daaku Maharaaj. From discussing gifts she received from her parents to dismissing controversies surrounding other celebrities, Urvashi has kept herself in the public eye, helping the film secure a pop culture moment. This only adds to the puzzlement about why her image was not featured on the official poster.
Social media users were quick to react, with many chiming in with tongue-in-cheek remarks. One comment best encapsulated the sentiment, stating: “First ever Firstest ever lady to be removed from the poster of her film first time ever happened to lady who’s always first.” Other fans added: “First Indian actress to get dropped from the poster” and “She is Asia’s first woman who is dropped from her own film.” While the reasons behind her exclusion from the poster remain unclear, one thing is certain: Urvashi Rautela has become an internet sensation in her own right, with Daaku Maharaaj becoming much more than just a movie. Fans are clearly feeling the absence of her presence in the marketing and it will be interesting to see if the issue is addressed as the film’s release date approaches. In the meantime, the internet continues to have a field day with the unexpected and humorous situation.
