Hyderabad: Actor Allu Arjun has filed a criminal petition in the Telangana High Court seeking to quash an FIR (376/2024) registered against him by Chikkadpally police. The FIR was issued following the tragic death of a woman at Sandhya Theatre, RTC Crossroads, during the first-day screening of his film Pushpa-2.
Petition Details
In his plea, Allu Arjun requested the court to halt all proceedings connected to the FIR until his petition is adjudicated. He asserted that the allegations against him are baseless, emphasizing that the FIR lacks specific claims or evidence implicating him directly in the incident.
According to the actor’s petition, the FIR attempts to misuse the judicial system by dragging his name into the case without any factual foundation.
Incident Background
The FIR stems from an unfortunate incident on the opening day of Pushpa-2, when a woman lost her life at the Sandhya Theatre. While further details about the nature of the incident remain under investigation, police actions linking the actor to the case have drawn criticism.
Legal Outlook

Legal experts suggest that the court will likely assess both the procedural and substantive aspects of the FIR, focusing on whether Allu Arjun should be held responsible.
