  "account": "The Iranian Embassy in Zimbabwe posted a 58-second clip from the Telugu film Bhagavanth Kesari on X to respond to US President Donald Trump's threats against Iran. The embassy's post stated, \"Trump talks about annihilating Iran. But he knows Iran is not defenseless. Since we informed, they have recently been watching Bollywood instead of Hollywood.\" The clip features a scene where Balakrishna's character uses a manhole cover as a shield while being fired at, then launches gas cylinders at his attackers instead of firing a gun. The embassy's post was met with some criticism for mistakenly labeling the film as Bollywood when it is actually a Telugu-language film from India, or Tollywood.",
