Vijay Deverakonda’s Kingdom Hits Theatres with Positive Buzz, But Fans Miss “Hridayam Lopala” Song

Vijay Deverakonda’s much-anticipated film Kingdom released in theatres today with a strong buzz and mostly positive early reactions. Directed by Jersey fame Gowtam Tinnanuri, the film stars newcomer Bhagyashri Borse as the female lead.

While fans appreciated the gripping storyline and strong performances, many were left disappointed to discover that the romantic track Hridayam Lopala was completely removed from the final cut. The song, which had featured prominently in the film’s promotions and was expected to deepen the emotional arc between the lead characters, is missing entirely—even its background score is absent.

The removal has sparked conversation among fans on social media, who felt the song added depth to the romantic angle in Kingdom. Despite this, the film is being praised for its storytelling, direction, and Vijay Deverakonda’s compelling performance.
