"What a wastage of milk! You do realize Telangana has a lot of people who actually don't have money to afford it," wrote another concerned twitterer.

"I didn't know that people from my state can come with this. Pouring milk on hero posters on big cinema release is norm here, but this is altogether in different league," said another user.
