Tollywood star Allu Arjun recently found himself in the middle of a political controversy stemming from his involvement in an election campaign for his friend, a YSR Congress Party candidate in Nandyal, Andhra Pradesh. This move didn’t sit well with some fans and audiences, as the YSR Congress Party is a rival to Pawan Kalyan’s Janasena Party. Since then, tensions between the fanbases of Allu Arjun and Pawan Kalyan have been palpable.
Adding fuel to the fire, Nandyal MP Byreddy Shabari recently took a satirical jab at Allu Arjun through a now-deleted tweet on her official X (formerly Twitter) account. In her post, she called Allu Arjun’s campaign for their party “unforgettable” and humorously hoped to organize a pre-release event for Pushpa 2 just like his “pre-election event” in Nandyal. She credited his campaign efforts for their electoral victory while also wishing Pushpa 2 massive success at the Pan-India level.
The tweet quickly went viral, drawing criticism from fans and others who accused the MP of unnecessarily targeting the actor for his political affiliations. Facing backlash, Shabari deleted the tweet, but the incident has left fans speculating about potential responses from Allu Arjun’s supporters, including the possibility of a trolling campaign against the MP.
As Pushpa 2 gears up for its grand release, all eyes are on how this controversy will impact the star’s relationship with his fans and the public.
