Nidhi Agarwal’s promotional appearance in Hyderabad took a disturbing turn on December 17, 2025, after the actress was mobbed by an uncontrollable crowd outside a mall event. The incident happened during the launch of the song “Sahana Sahana” from her upcoming Telugu film The Raja Saab with Prabhas.
The event was held at Lulu Mall and was attended by Nidhi Agarwal and director Maruthi. According to reports, the programme began smoothly, with fans gathering to catch a glimpse of the team. However, the situation spiralled out of control when Nidhi attempted to leave the venue after the event concluded.
Nidhi Agarwal Rushes To Car As Crowd Turns Unruly In Viral Video
As Nidhi moved towards her vehicle, hundreds of fans and bystanders reportedly broke through the security barricades. The crowd quickly surrounded her, leaving little room for movement. Videos that later surfaced online show the actress visibly shaken as she struggled to make her way through the chaos.
In the viral clips, Nidhi Agarwal can be seen clutching her dupatta tightly while being pushed from all sides. Despite the presence of bouncers and personal security, the massive turnout made crowd control nearly impossible. At one point, the situation became so aggressive that the actress was reportedly manhandled and almost faced a wardrobe malfunction.
Sources later confirmed a major security lapse at the event. Law enforcement officials revealed that the organisers had failed to obtain official police permission. As a result, there was no government-supervised security or proper crowd management in place to handle such a large gathering.
Although Nidhi eventually managed to reach her car and leave safely, she appeared deeply traumatised by the ordeal. Thankfully, no physical injuries were reported. However, the incident has once again raised serious questions about the safety of female actors during public promotions.
