Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s statements on the stampede incident which led actor Allu Arjun’s arrest sparked a huge controversy after his speech during the ongoing assembly sessions went viral all over on mainstream media channels and social media platforms. Revanth Reddy was visibly infuriated with the way Allu Arjun ignored the warning of the theatre management and also found fault with his indifferent attitude after the police told him about the death of a woman.
Revanth Reddy came down heavily on film celebrities who made a beeline to visit Allu Arjun after he came out on bail immediately the next day . The Chief Minister asked why all these Tollywood celebs did so much overaction and extended support to Allu Arjun by visiting his home just for a matter of arrest for 12 hours.
Did he lose a limb or an eye ? Did he suffered kidney failure ? Why all Tollywood artists visited him and expressed solace and support to Allu Arjun? Why did they attacked the government and the Chief Minister? Why didn’t anyone visit the kid who was hospitalized and battling for life.
It is a known fact that immediately after Allu Arjun was released on bail the next day morning, there was a heavy influx of celebrities at his residence and Geeta Arts office for the next couple days. Actors like Rana Daggubati , Naga Chaitanya, Nani, Akhil and many others called on him and expressed solidarity with him. Allu Arjun even went to Chiranjeevi’s house and also met Nagababu two days later.
Though the general public initially supported Allu Arjun in the matter because it was purely accidental and an unforseen incident, the overaction did by Tollywood celebs after his release triggered huge backlash as it was not necessary because he spent just a few hours in jail. Moreover, the needless publicity given by Bunny’s team also resulted in massive criticism.
