Allu Arjun Ordered to Attend Nampally Court in Pushpa 2 Case

Allu Arjun, the celebrated star known for his role in the much-awaited 'Pushpa 2', has been directed by the Nampally Court to appear in person regarding the Sandhya Theatre stampede case. This unexpected development has created a stir among fans and industry watchers, especially given Arjun's current busy shooting schedule in Mumbai.

The tragic incident occurred during the premiere of 'Pushpa 2' at Hyderabad's Sandhya Theatre in December 2024, resulting in the loss of a woman's life and leaving her son seriously injured. The film, produced by Mythri Movie Makers and directed by Sukumar, has been at the centre of attention since its announcement. Chikkadpally Police filed a chargesheet naming Allu Arjun as Accused No 11, along with members of the theatre staff and others associated with the event.

Despite Arjun's plea to attend the proceedings virtually due to shooting commitments, the court found his reasons insufficient and insisted on his physical presence, as per reports. Security measures are set to be heightened around Nampally Court, with strict restrictions in place for Monday's hearing.

With this high-profile legal turn, the Telugu film industry and fans are closely watching for further updates. All eyes are now on Monday’s proceedings and what they could mean for the star and the film’s future.
