That is how it was in many theatres across the country as crowds streamed in to watch 'Adipurush', a retelling of the Ramayana. Some were seen offering prayers, others pausing for a moment and there were, of course, those clicking mandatory selfies of the unusual sight before they settled down to watch the film.
