Popular Telugu actor Allu Arjun was arrested on Friday and later granted interim bail in connection with the death of a woman during the premiere of his latest film Pushpa 2: The Rule at a Hyderabad theatre earlier this month.
HYDERABAD: Amid huge backlash over the arrest, chief minister Revanth Reddy said "people who violate the rules will be arrested".
The actor was taken into custody from his Jubilee Hills residence early on Monday. He was then transported to Chikkadpally police station for questioning that lasted approximately two hours. "Yes, we have arrested him in connection with the death of a 35-year-old woman M Revathi due to asphyxiation during the screening of the premiere show of his latest film Pushpa-2: The Rule," Hyderabad police commissioner C V Anand said.
