BJP MP Anurag Thakur has backed actor Allu Arjun amid criticism following a stampede at a Pushpa 2: The Rule premiere in Hyderabad. Thakur said, “Some people are trying to tarnish Telugu actors who have brought global fame to Indian cinema.” He praised Allu Arjun’s National Award and noted the success of Telugu films like RRR and Baahubali. The controversy intensified after a Telangana Congress MLA warned Arjun to stop commenting on the Chief Minister, threatening to block his films. The stampede, which killed a woman and injured her child, led to Arjun being questioned by police and released on bail.
