Allu Arjun Returns Home After Interim Bail in Hyderabad Stampede Case
Telugu film star Allu Arjun has returned to his home in Hyderabad after being granted interim bail in the tragic Sandhya Theatre stampede case. The actor, who was arrested on December 8, 2024, in connection with the incident during the premiere of his movie Pushpa 2: The Rule, was granted bail after a brief stint in judicial custody.
Key Details of the Sandhya Theatre Stampede Incident
The incident occurred on December 4, 2024, during the eagerly awaited premiere of Pushpa 2: The Rule at Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad. A stampede broke out, tragically resulting in the death of Revathi, a 39-year-old woman, while her 8-year-old son was injured and hospitalized. The stampede was reportedly triggered by chaotic crowd behavior during the screening.
In the aftermath, Hyderabad police filed a case against Allu Arjun, his security team, and the management of Sandhya Theatre under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) based on a complaint from the deceased woman’s family.
Allu Arjun’s Interim Bail and Legal Proceedings
After his arrest, Allu Arjun was remanded to 14 days of judicial custody. However, the actor quickly sought relief from the Telangana High Court, requesting the quashing of the FIR and interim bail. On Friday night, the court granted Arjun interim bail on a personal bond of Rs 50,000.
The actor was subsequently released from Chanchalguda Jail and returned home to a warm welcome from his family, including his wife Sneha Reddy and son Allu Ayaan. Fans also gathered outside his residence in Jubilee Hills, showing their support for the star, who has become a beloved figure in the Telugu film industry.
