Nani penned a note on X (formerly Twitter) calling out the government and media for their ‘enthusiasm’ when it comes to anything related to celebrities. He wrote, “I wish the kind of enthusiasm government authorities and media show in anything related to people from cinema was also there for the regular citizens. We would have lived in a better society.”

He then mentioned that the death must be a learning lesson to everyone and that Arjun alone cannot be blamed for the incident, writing, “That was an unfortunate incident and it was heart breaking. We should all learn from the disaster and be lot more careful here after and introduce measures to make sure this doesn’t happen again. We are all at fault here. One person is not responsible for this.”

Allu Arjun arrested

The arrest comes two days after Arjun filed a petition in Telangana High Court, requesting them to quash the FIR filed against him by the police. The police had alleged that the actor, his team and the management of Sandhya Theatre had not informed them of his visit on December 4. His visit had caused a stampede-like situation, resulting in the death of a woman and the hospitalisation of her young son.
