The Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna-fronted Pushpa 2 continue to attract the audience even in third week. The film has set new box office records domestically and globally. However, amid this, the actor has landed in legal trouble following the stampede incident. Looks like more troubles lie ahead for Allu Arjun as a Congress Leader have expressed disappointment over a scene in Pushpa 2.
Politician complaints against Allu Arjun over Pushpa 2 scene
In one of the scene, the protagonist urinates in a swimming pool while a police officer (Fahadh Faasil) is in it. The scene has not gone down well with a senior leader of the Congress in Telangana and he has loged a complaint. Congress leader Theenmar Mallanna has filed a fresh complaint against Allu Arjun for allegedly insulting police in his movie. He called the scene “disrespectful” and alleged that it degrades the dignity of law enforcement officers. Besides Allu Arjun, the Congress leader has also filed a complaint against the film’s director Sukumar and the producers. The leader has demanded action against the makers of Pushpa 2 and urged the authorities to take strict measures against ‘offensive portrayal’ of the police.
This is second complaint against actor after the stampede case that took place on 4th December. At the Hyderabad’s Sandhya Theatre, a stampede led to the tragic death of a woman and left her eight-year-old son in critical condition. Police claimed that despite denying permission for the event, Allu Arjun attended it, resulting in his arrest. He is currently out on bail. Adding to the controversy was the Sunday’s incident where a group of opposition party vandalised actor’s house. 6 of them were even arrested.
Talking about the film, it also stars Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh in pivotal roles. The film is a sequel of 2021 film Pushpa: The Rise.
