A critical decision regarding the bail plea of renowned Telugu actor Allu Arjun, involved in a case concerning a fatal stampede at his film's premiere, was delayed on Monday. The II Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge postponed the verdict to January 3, 2025, following extensive arguments from both the prosecution and defense.
The tragic incident unfolded on December 4 at Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad, where a 35-year-old woman perished tragically, and her young son was injured in a chaotic rush of fans eager to see Allu Arjun during the release of 'Pushpa-2'. In the aftermath, authorities charged Arjun, his security, and the theatre management under various penal codes, as per a complaint from the victim's family.
While Allu Arjun appeared remotely in court after filing his bail petition, the case also highlights the ongoing recovery of the injured boy, who remains hospitalized. His condition is largely stable, despite needing minimal ventilator support, as medical updates indicated some improvements in his health.
