The footage has gone viral across Instagram, Facebook, and X, garnering over 6 million views, more than 6 lakh likes, and thousands of reactions from viewers who called the moment “historic” and “heartening.” Several commenters celebrated the event by writing devotional chants such as “Om Namah Bhagavate Vasudevaya.”
The clip was amplified further after being reshared by news and social platforms, describing the screening as a milestone event for the Hindu community in Pakistan.
Despite the enthusiastic response, independent verification of the video is still pending. No official confirmation has yet come from the temple administration or Pakistani media outlets, leaving uncertainty about whether the screening was an officially organised event or a privately arranged gathering within the premises.
Mahavatar Narasimha has gained international attention since its release, becoming India’s first Oscar-eligible mythological animated film. The movie retells the story of the Narasimha avatar of Vishnu using advanced animation and has been praised for its visual scale and cultural depth.
For many social-media users, the reported screening inside a Pakistani temple represents a powerful message of religious coexistence and cross-border cultural exchange. Comments online reflect emotional support for such shared experiences between communities divided by politics but united by heritage.
