Saif Ali Khan skips Adipurush event in Tirupati; Prabhas-Kriti Sanon attend trailer launch

The team of Adipurush is gearing up for the pre-release event to be held today (June 6) in Tirupati. A new trailer of the film will be launched, ahead of June 16 release. However, it seems like the film's antagonist Saif Ali Khan will not be a part of the promotional event once again. 

The actor was recently snapped in Mumbai along with his elder son Taimur Ali Khan. He went to pick his son up from his football practice. Saif wore a pink kurta paired with white pants. In the photos, he could be seen walking with Taimur on the ground. Take a look at the photo below.

Later, he gave the Mumbai film trailer launch a miss too. The actor has been missing from the prmotional events since the start including poster releases, song release and other events. Meanwhile, the film's lead actors Prabhas and Kriti Sanon have reached Tirupati for the new trailer launch.
