Excitement Turns to Mayhem at Pushpa 2 Event
The much-anticipated trailer launch of Pushpa 2: The Rule in Patna took a chaotic turn when an overwhelming crowd of fans tried to catch a glimpse of the film’s lead actors, Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna. The frenzy spiraled out of control, leading to a police lathi charge to manage the crowd.
Unprecedented Fan Craze
The trailer launch event was set to be a grand affair, celebrating the sequel to one of Indian cinema’s biggest blockbusters. Thousands of fans gathered at the venue, chanting slogans for their favorite stars and waving posters of Allu Arjun’s iconic character, Pushpa Raj.
However, the crowd surged towards the stage when Allu Arjun and Rashmika appeared, breaking through barricades and overwhelming the security team. The actors, initially seen greeting fans, had to be escorted to safety as the situation worsened.
Police Intervention to Control the Crowd
Local police were called in to manage the escalating chaos. Despite their efforts to calm the fans, the crowd continued to grow unruly, forcing the authorities to resort to a lathi charge. Several fans sustained minor injuries during the commotion, while some were taken to nearby hospitals for treatment.
A senior police officer stated, “The enthusiasm of the fans was uncontrollable. While we understand their excitement, safety had to be prioritized.”
Actors Appeal for Calm
Both Allu Arjun and Rashmika took to social media after the incident, expressing their gratitude for the fans’ love while urging them to prioritize safety. “We are overwhelmed by your love, but let’s ensure everyone stays safe while celebrating Pushpa 2 together,” wrote Allu Arjun in his message.
Event Overshadowed by Chaos
