Pushpa 2 Faces New Legal Case: ₹20 Crore Fine Looms for Allu Arjun

Mumbai (The Uttam Hindu): Allu Arjun's film *Pushpa 2* continues to dominate at the box office, winning the hearts of audiences with its stellar performance. However, the star's personal troubles seem far from over. Recently, a group of individuals threw stones at Allu Arjun's residence in Hyderabad, only to be released on bail shortly after. Adding to his woes, yet another legal case has been filed against *Pushpa 2*.

According to reports, Congress MLC Thenmar Mallanna lodged a complaint against Allu Arjun and the film's makers at the Medpalli police station. The issue stems from a particular scene in the film where Pushparaj is shown urinating in a swimming pool while a policeman is present in the pool. Mallanna has deemed the scene objectionable, claiming that it insults the law of the country. As a result, the film's director, Sukumar, is now under scrutiny.

The controversy has also drawn the attention of the Telangana government. Reports suggest that Chief Minister Revanth Reddy is displeased with Allu Arjun over the matter. Telangana Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy has stated that Allu Arjun may need to pay ₹20 crore to the victim’s family to settle the case. Additionally, he might also have to issue a formal apology to the family. This statement from Komatireddy Venkat Reddy has sparked widespread debate on social media. Meanwhile, reports indicate that Allu Arjun is set to appear before Hyderabad police today. Summons were issued against the actor by the Hyderabad police yesterday, instructing him to present himself at Chikkadpally police station at 11 a.m.
