Police FIR against Allu Arjun for inviting army of fans to Pushpa 2 events

A police complaint has been filed against Telugu actor Allu Arjun for allegedly calling his fan base ‘army’ during an event for his upcoming film Pushpa 2: Rule. The incident happened at a promotional event where the actor addressed his large following, calling them his “army” in what appeared to be a gesture of appreciation for their support.

A complaint filed by a local resident alleged that Allu Arjun’s comments could incite violence or aggression among his fans. The petitioner expressed concern about the use of military terminology in the context of his fan base, suggesting that it could potentially lead to misunderstandings or disruptive behavior. The police have yet to comment on the details of the case.

The actor’s comments drew both support and criticism from various quarters. Allu Arjun’s fans defended his statement, saying it was a simple expression of admiration for his loyal followers. However, critics say the use of terms such as “army” can have unintended consequences, especially in a country where fan culture sometimes erupts into bitter rivalries and conflicts.

Police are currently investigating the complaint, and it remains to be seen whether the actor will face formal charges. The incident also drew attention to the influence celebrities have on their followers and the responsibility they can bear in shaping public behavior.

Allu Arjun is known for his widespread popularity and devoted fan following and the success of his previous film Pushpa only increased his fan base. Despite this controversy, Pushpa 2: Rule highly anticipated, fans are eagerly waiting for its release.
