Indian Actor Allu Arjun was arrested by officials from the Chikkadpally police station in Hyderabad on Friday in connection with the tragic death of a fan during the premiere of his latest film, Pushpa 2: The Rule.
As news of the arrest spread, a massive crowd of fans gathered outside the police station in a show of support, with many expressing concern and confusion over the situation. Social media erupted with divided opinions, with some questioning the legitimacy of the arrest, while others speculated it could be a PR stunt.
Pictures and videos circulating on X (formerly Twitter) show fans rallying outside the Chikkadpally police station, prompting the police to enforce heightened security measures to control the crowd and maintain order.
This development comes just two days after Arjun filed a petition at the Telangana High Court seeking to quash the FIR lodged against him.
Amid the chaos, fans online voiced their confusion about the arrest. One user questioned, “But what’s his fault? Isn’t crowd control the police’s responsibility?” Another commented, “Wait, why is Allu Arjun being arrested? For acting in a movie or for the police failing to manage the crowd? Looks like they messed up and arrested the actor instead.”
The incident has left fans and the internet abuzz, with many eagerly awaiting further developments in the case.
