Actor Allu Arjun, who was recently released on an interim bail in the Hyderabad theatre stampede case, broke his silence over social media’s never-ending question of him not visiting the victim and his family. The child remains in hospital. The actor faced criticisms and backlash in this regard and has finally revealed the reason behind his decision.
Since the release of Allu Arjun, the internet has been constantly buzzing about the actor’s interactions with various stars of the industry. The actor and his family also visited megastar Chiranjeevi on Sunday, and several stars, including Vijay Devarakonda, Naga Chaitanya, and Akhil Akkineni, and the Pushpa 2 director, Sukumar, were also spotted at the actor’s residence, extending their support.
This sparked controversies on the internet. Netizens were questioning the actor about his celebration, which appeared quite insensitive to some. The Pushpa 2 star issued a statement on his social media handle, explaining why he has not visited the hospital to meet the 8-year-old child who remains on ventilator.
