Allu Arjun’s Heartfelt Thanks to Pawan Kalyan Goes Viral
The recently released film Pushpa-2, starring Stylish Star Allu Arjun alongside Rashmika Mandanna and Sreeleela, directed by Sukumar, has created a box office sensation. Released globally on December 5, the movie has already grossed over ₹500 crore, according to the film's producers. To celebrate this massive success, the film’s team held a grand success meet in Hyderabad.
During the event, Allu Arjun grabbed attention by expressing special thanks to Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan, whom he fondly referred to as "Kalyan Babai." This statement has become a hot topic in both political and film circles.
The backdrop of this gesture traces back to previous elections when the Mega family campaigned for Pawan Kalyan’s Jana Sena Party in Pithapuram. However, Allu Arjun supported YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) candidate Ravi in Nandyal, sparking widespread speculation about a family rift. Since then, fans of both stars have engaged in intense social media debates, fueling rumors of personal differences between the two.
Allu Arjun’s public acknowledgment at the success meet seemed to signal that there are no unresolved issues between them, easing tensions among their fans.
Additionally, Allu Arjun extended gratitude to the Telangana and Andhra Pradesh state governments for approving higher ticket rates for the film. He also specifically thanked Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu and Pawan Kalyan for playing a key role in facilitating a special government order (GO) allowing premium ticket pricing. His heartfelt "Thank you so much, Kalyan Babai" prompted an electrifying response from the gathered fans.
A video of Allu Arjun’s remarks has since gone viral on social media, sparking renewed discussions about the bond between the two stars.
