Allu Arjun Arrested Over Death Of Woman In Stampede At 'Pushpa 2' Screening

HYDERABAD: Telugu actor Allu Arjun has been arrested in connection with the stampede outside a Hyderabad theatre last week in which one woman was killed. Shortly after he was taken into custody Mr Arjun filed a petition seeking to delay his arrest till Monday; the hearing at the Nampally Court will be at 4 pm.

Mr Arjun was taken from his Jubilee Hills home to the Chikkadpally Police Station. The actor's father - well-known filmmaker Allu Arvind - and other family members were present when he was arrested.

The actor has claimed the cops entered his bedroom to arrest him.

Hyderabad Police had earlier filed a case against the 41-year-old star and several others, including members of his security team and the management of the Sandhya Theatre in the city.

The complaint - filed by the husband of the woman killed - said the actor and theatre management had neglected to inform the police of the latter's plan to attend a screening of the film at the theatre.

However, Mr Arjun's office and the theatre officials have insisted the cops had, in fact, been informed.

And, hours after his arrest, a copy of just such a letter was released, in which the police were told of plans for the film's stars, Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandana, to visit the theatre at 9.30 pm.
