CV Anand apologizes for his controversial remarks on media over Allu Arjun stampede controversy

Allu Arjun has been in the news not just for his recent release but also due to the tragic incident during the premiere of his film ‘Pushpa 2’ at Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad on December 4, 2024. The stampede resulted in the death of a 39-year-old woman named Revathi and left her eight-year-old son in critical condition.
Hyderabad Police Commissioner CV Anand also addressed the media, presenting video footage showing Allu Arjun at the theatre during the stampede but refrained from providing further details due to the ongoing investigation.
The police have stated that they had warned the theatre management about potential crowd control issues but were not informed about Allu Arjun’s attendance. This lack of communication contributed to the overcrowding that led to the tragic stampede. During a press briefing, CV Anand made controversial remarks, accusing national media of being biased and unprofessional, which sparked outrage among journalists. Following public backlash, Anand issued an apology on social media, admitting that he lost his temper during the questioning.
On X (formerly Twitter) he wrote, “I apologise for losing my cool when asked continuous provoking questions on ongoing investigations and making unnecessary general remarks about national media . I feel bad that I got provoked and it was wrong and should have kept calm .I withdraw my remarks wholeheartedly”

Recently, protests erupted outside Allu Arjun’s home, where demonstrators demanded compensation for Revathi’s family and expressed their anger over the actor’s perceived negligence. Some protesters vandalized his property, throwing tomatoes and breaking flower pots as tensions flared.
The police have since arrested several individuals involved in the protests and increased security around Allu Arjun’s residence. Meanwhile, legal proceedings continue regarding the stampede incident, with an FIR filed against Allu Arjun and others connected to the event.
