Hyderabad/IBNS: Telugu superstar Allu Arjun will be charged for the stampede that occurred outside a Hyderabad theatre in which a woman was left dead on Wednesday after he arrived without prior intimation for the premiere show of his movie "Pushpa 2: The Rule", police said on Thursday.

The chaos broke out at the Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad's RTC Crossroads at around 10:30 pm when a massive crowd rushed to the theatre to catch a glimpse of Allu Arjun, who made a surprise visit at the screening.

Besides the actor, the management of Sandhya Theatre will also be charged for not making any "additional provisions regarding security to manage the crowd".

There was no immediate response either from Arjun or the theatre management at the time of filing this report.

Revathi, 39, came to the theatre with her husband and two children from Dilsukhnagar to attend the premiere show.

Revathi was rushed to a hospital where she succumbed to her injuries while her young son, who was also wounded, is in critical condition at the clinic.

As per reports, the crowd barged into the theatre as Allu Arjun arrived.

A number of people tried to get closer to their favourite star who was guarded by heavy security.

Police also had to lathicharge to disperse the crowd that had turned unruly.

Later, Allu Arjun waved at his fans from the sun roof of his car where he was escorted safely by his security.

Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 2: The Rule is the sequel to the 2021 film Pushpa: The Rise.

The second installment features Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Faasil in the lead alongside Allu Arjun, who charged Rs. 300 crore as his remuneration, the highest by an Indian actor.
