Allu Arjun's presence in Mumbai for his upcoming film 'Raaka' has sparked a flurry of speculation in recent days, with rumours suggesting the Icon Star might permanently move to the city. This buzz reached a peak as reports hinted that Allu Arjun could be relocating for a period of three years, raising concerns among his massive fan base.
The actor, known for his blockbuster streak and recent pan-India popularity, is currently filming 'Raaka', directed by Atlee. The project has drawn attention not just for its high-profile director but also its star-studded cast, including Deepika Padukone in the lead alongside Mrunal Thakur, Janhvi Kapoor, and Rashmika Mandanna. With music by Sai Abhyankar, expectations are soaring.
Fans, especially in Hyderabad, have been vocal on social media, expressing anxiety about the potential move. Responding to these swirling rumours, Allu Aravind, Allu Arjun's father, set the record straight, stating: "No. Since his current film is being shot in Mumbai, it may appear that way. But Hyderabad is where Allu’s heart and home are. His children study there, and all his loved ones are based in Hyderabad. Why would he move to Mumbai?"
With this clarification, the focus returns to the much-anticipated release of 'Raaka'. Fans can look forward to more updates as the shoot progresses, keeping Hyderabad as Allu Arjun's home base.
