The protest is linked to the tragic events at Sandhya Theatre, where a stampede broke out during the premiere of Allu Arjun’s film. Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy accused the actor of ignoring police warnings and conducting a roadshow at RTC X Road, which led to overcrowding and chaos.  

In a statement in the Assembly, the Chief Minister said, "The actor refused to leave despite requests from the police. Even when leaving, he climbed onto his car roof and waved to fans, triggering more chaos."  

Allu Arjun’s Clarification

Responding to the allegations, Allu Arjun expressed his condolences for the tragedy but refuted claims of misconduct. "I deeply apologise for the incident but want to clarify that I had no direct involvement. This incident is devastating for me," the actor stated.  

He also addressed misinformation surrounding the tragedy, calling it an attempt at "character assassination." "I haven’t even watched my film in the theatre despite working on it for three years," he added.  

Actor Urges Fans to Maintain Decorum

Allu Arjun took to Instagram to urge his fans to remain calm and behave responsibly. "I appeal to my fans to express themselves responsibly and avoid any abusive language or actions. Misuse of my name will not be tolerated," he said in his post.
