Actor Allu Arjun has approached the Telangana High Court to seek the quashing of an FIR filed against him following the tragic death of a woman at the Pushpa 2 movie premiere in Hyderabad.

The incident occurred on December 4 at Sandhya Theatre, where a large crowd gathered to see the actor. The victim, a 35-year-old woman, died of asphyxiation, while her eight-year-old son was hospitalized.

Based on a complaint from the deceased woman’s family, the police registered a case on December 5 under Sections 105 and 118(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) at the Chikkadpally police station. The FIR names Allu Arjun, his security team, and the theatre management.

As part of the investigation, three individuals connected to the theatre were arrested, including an owner, a senior manager, and the lower balcony in charge.

In his plea, Arjun has requested the court to quash the FIR and stay all related proceedings, including his potential arrest, until the petition is resolved.

The actor has also extended financial support of ₹25 lakh to the victim’s family. The High Court is expected to hear his petition in the coming days.
