Allu Arjun Summoned Over Pushpa 2 Theatre Stampede
Icon Star Allu Arjun is back in the spotlight for reasons beyond the silver screen, as the Nampally Court has summoned him over the tragic stampede during the premiere of his much-awaited film, Pushpa 2: The Rule. This legal development comes as the court moves closer to commencing the trial into the harrowing incident that shook Hyderabad's Sandhya Theatre.
Allu Arjun, who has recently been riding high on the success and anticipation surrounding Pushpa 2, now faces serious allegations after being named as the 11th accused in the police charge sheet. The incident, which occurred at RTC Cross Roads, resulted in the unfortunate death of a woman named Revathi and left her son critically injured. According to police, the chaos was triggered when Allu Arjun greeted fans from an open-top vehicle, reportedly ignoring security advisories.
The case has seen its share of twists, with a total of 23 people including theatre staff and security personnel also implicated. Earlier, Allu Arjun spent a night in judicial custody before being granted bail, and the court later relaxed his bail terms. The charge sheet itself faced scrutiny, being returned twice for corrections due to technical issues.
With the court now summoning all accused ahead of the trial, all eyes are on whether Allu Arjun will make a personal appearance or opt for legal exemption. The Tollywood fraternity and fans alike await the next turn in this high-profile controversy.
