Divya Delhi: Fans adore actors as demi-gods in several parts of India. This kind of fandom can turn deadly, as at Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2 premiere. The Sandhya auditorium in Hyderabad saw a stampede as Allu Arjun arrived for the film launch. A mother died and her 8-year-old son was critically hurt in the stampede. The administration was slammed for the news, and many blamed Allu Arjun for being careless and attending an event with poor security. Recently, his friend and colleague Vishnu Manchu stated it's inappropriate to blame the actor for the misfortune. After over eight months, Allu Arjun's friend and actor Vishnu Manchu told Nayandeep Rakshit on YouTube, "I wouldn't want to deliberate much on that because the case is still going on in the court." As Movie Artist Association President in Hyderabad, I believed it was not his fault. His only error was being himself. We all want to see the movie in theaters. Giving us a high. People are unaware.”He said, “It is like winning a Wimbledon. He saw his movie and got the high of people screaming for you to look at the screen. A massive high. All actors want that. We work hard for that. Dieting kills appetite for that. Our sweat and blood are for that.” Vishnu Manchu called the fan's death "unfortunate" and said, "Him being the posterboy for that tragedy is unacceptable.
