Hyderabad, 23rd Dec. Six individuals accused of vandalizing Telugu actor Allu Arjun’s residence in Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, were granted bail by a local court on Monday. Advocate Ramdas, representing the accused, confirmed their release following a brief court hearing earlier in the day.
The incident, which occurred on Sunday evening, saw a group of individuals reportedly affiliated with the Osmania University Joint Action Committee (OU-JAC) storming Allu Arjun’s residence. According to the DCP West Zone, the group carried placards and shouted slogans demanding justice for a woman who lost her life during a stampede at the screening of the actor’s recent movie, Pushpa-2. One protester climbed the compound wall and began throwing tomatoes, while others vandalized flower pots and other property.
The accused were detained by the Hyderabad police shortly after the incident. They claimed their protest aimed to hold the actor accountable, alleging that film productions generate enormous profits while failing to ensure public safety during screenings. A placard left at the site read, “Crores of rupees are made by making films, while those watching films are dying.” The protesters demanded financial assistance of ₹1 crore for the family of the woman who died in the stampede.
At the time of the attack, Allu Arjun was not present at his residence. Police have since deployed additional security at the actor’s home to prevent further disturbances.
Reacting to the incident, Allu Arjun’s father, veteran producer Allu Aravind, urged for calm and emphasized the importance of allowing the law to take its course. Speaking to reporters, he stated, “You have seen what happened outside our house. This is a time for us to observe restraint. We should not react to such incidents. Police have filed a case, and they are prepared to handle any further trouble. No one should encourage this type of behavior.”
The police are continuing their investigation into the vandalism, and the incident has sparked discussions about the responsibility of filmmakers and organizers in ensuring the safety of audiences during high-profile events. Meanwhile, fans of Allu Arjun and industry insiders have condemned the act, calling for peaceful methods to address grievances.
As the situation unfolds, heightened security measures remain in place at the actor’s residence to avoid any escalation.
