Mumbai, Maharashtra, 11th of May 2026 : A mysterious viral post from Madhya Pradesh’s Narmadapuram set social media ablaze on Sunday after claims surfaced that Police Inspector Purushottam Bhadauria had gone missing under suspicious circumstances.

The buzz began after a dramatic “breaking news” style screenshot started circulating across Facebook, Instagram, X, and WhatsApp. The viral image claimed that Inspector Bhadauria had left his police line residence around 1 AM in connection with an important investigation but never returned. According to the post, district authorities had declared a high alert and deployed multiple police teams to trace the officer before June 12.
Adding to the intrigue were CCTV visuals, sensational news graphics, and haunting captions like “Where is Purushottam Bhadauria?” — triggering panic, curiosity, and endless speculation online. Many users believed the incident was real, while others linked it to a larger criminal conspiracy or political cover-up.

However, the suspense took a cinematic turn when it was later revealed that the entire campaign was a high-voltage promotional strategy for the upcoming thriller film The Narmada Story.
The makers reportedly designed the campaign to blur the lines between fiction and reality, creating an immersive mystery experience for audiences ahead of the film’s release. Industry insiders say the film revolves around the sudden disappearance of a police officer and the dark secrets that unfold afterward, combining crime, suspense, emotion, and psychological drama.
One of the biggest talking points surrounding the film is the presence of real-life IPS officer Simala Prasad in a pivotal role. Her appearance alongside acclaimed actors Raghubir Yadav, Mukesh Tiwari, Anjali Patil, Ashwini Kalsekar, and Zarina Wahab has generated strong excitement among movie lovers.

Social media has particularly been buzzing about Simala Prasad’s role, with audiences eager to watch a real police officer portray a law enforcement character on the big screen. Currently serving as DIG Women Safety at Police Headquarters in Bhopal, Simala is widely regarded as one of India’s most respected police officers.
The trailer of The Narmada Story is expected to release soon, while the film is slated for a theatrical release on June 12, 2026.
