More details

Even as Pushpa 2 remains strong at the global box office, there are tensions brewing in India for the lead actor ever since a stampede-like situation at the movie's premiere resulted in the death of a woman in Hyderabad. Last week he was arrested and then released on bail. His father, Allu Aravind, and director Sukumar have since visited the victim in the hospital. Arjun donated ₹25 lakh to the family, while Sukumar gave them ₹5 lakh.

The actor faced fresh accusations from Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy who claimed the police informed him of her death when he was in the theatre. On Sunday evening several protesters gathered outside Allu Arjun’s home in Hyderabad and threw stones and tomatoes, breaking flower pots and demanding the actor take care of the victim's family.

Pushpa 2 The Rule is a sequel to Sukumar’s 2011 hit Pushpa The Rise. Allu Arjun reprises his role of Pushpa Raj in the film alongside Rashmika Mandanna as Srivalli and Fahadh Faasil as SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat. The third part of the installment has been named Pushpa 3: The Rampage.
