Allu Arjun’s lawyer cites Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Raees’ promotion case during bail hearing
During the bail hearing for Allu Arjun, his lawyer drew a comparison to a previous stampede incident that occurred during the promotion of Shah Rukh Khan's film Raees. According to Live Law, the lawyer emphasized that the core question before the court was whether there was any rash or negligent behavior involved in the Sandhya Theatre stampede.
The lawyer pointed out that, in the Raees case, Shah Rukh Khan had thrown clothes into a crowd at a railway station, which led to a stampede, but he was not found criminally liable. In Allu Arjun’s case, the lawyer argued that the actor was on the first floor of the theatre when the stampede occurred on the ground floor, suggesting that his actions were not directly responsible for the tragedy.

Hyderabad DCP blames Allu Arjun's actions for stampede incident at Sandhya theatre
Hyderabad's Deputy Commissioner of Police, Akshansh Yadav, has stated that the tragic stampede at Sandhya Theatre, which led to the death of a woman and left her son critically injured, was a result of Allu Arjun's actions.

He added that the actor's private security team started pushing people to clear a path for Arjun's vehicle, exacerbating the situation. Despite being informed about the large public gathering, Allu Arjun’s team reportedly did not act on the instructions to remove him from the venue, leading to the actor staying inside the theatre for over two hours.
Yadav emphasized that while adequate police arrangements were made, the actor's actions directly contributed to the tragic outcome, with the woman losing her life and her son still unconscious in critical condition.
