Iran mocks Trump with Telugu film fight scene after UN warning

tamil.timesnownews.com (Tamil) — September 24, 2026 at 07:01 AM UTC

Iran's embassy in Zimbabwe mocked US President Donald Trump by sharing a Telugu film fight scene on X, following Trump's warning to "annihilate" Iran. The post has gone viral on social media. The embassy shared a 58-second action clip from Nandamuri Balakrishna's film "Bhagavanth Kesari," captioned that Trump knows Iran is not defenseless. Iran's Hyderabad embassy also shared the video, calling Telugu films "GOAT" and comparing the film's hero to Trump. The mockery follows Trump's September 22 UN General Assembly speech, where he warned of annihilation if no deal is reached with Iran. Tensions between the US and Iran have persisted for months, with indirect attacks continuing despite reduced direct confrontation.
