Will Jagan Face Justice Like Allu Arjun Did in Telangana?
A celebrity arrested, a politician unscathed—two tragedies, two states, one burning question: does justice play favorites? In December 2024, Telangana Police nabbed Allu Arjun after a deadly stampede at a Pushpa 2 premiere. Now, in June 2025, a fatal accident tied to YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s unauthorized rally in Andhra Pradesh raises eyebrows. Will Andhra’s police act as swiftly as Telangana’s? Let’s dive in.
The Telangana Tangle: Allu Arjun’s Arrest
What happens when a movie premiere turns deadly? On December 4, 2024, thousands swarmed Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad for Pushpa 2, leading to a stampede that killed 35-year-old Revathi. Telangana Police arrested Allu Arjun, his security, and theater staff, charging them with culpable homicide. Why? The event lacked permission, and Arjun’s presence allegedly sparked chaos. Was it fair to pin the blame on a star who didn’t directly cause the death? BJP’s Bandi Sanjay called it a “political stunt.” What do you think?
Andhra’s Tragedy: Jagan’s Rally Gone Wrong
Fast forward to June 2025. A 55-year-old YSRCP supporter, Cheeli Singayya, died after being struck by a vehicle in Jagan’s convoy during an unauthorized rally in Palnadu. Police allowed just 100 people and three vehicles, but over 10,000 supporters flooded the highway. A viral video shows the horrific moment Singayya was hit. Sound familiar? Unlike Allu Arjun, Jagan’s vehicle directly responsible.
Striking Similarities, Stark Differences
Both cases scream negligence: unauthorized gatherings, massive crowds, and tragic deaths. Telangana acted fast, hauling Arjun to court. Andhra? Crickets. Is Jagan’s political clout as a former Chief Minister shielding him? X users are raging, with one post asking, “If Allu Arjun was cuffed for Sandhya, what’s stopping AP from nabbing Jagan?”
The Big Question: Will Andhra government Act?
Telangana set a precedent: no permission, no excuses. But Andhra’s silence is deafening. Jagan’s rally wasn’t just unauthorized—it was a spectacle, much like Arjun’s premiere. With public outrage growing, will Andhra’s police summon the guts to charge Jagan? Or does power trump accountability? What’s your take—should Jagan face the same heat as Allu Arjun, or is this just politics as usual?
