The actor took to social media to bring the matter to Hyderabad Police’ attention, claiming that the music has been disturbing the entire neighborhood till 3 am at night.

Taking to his X handle, Allu Sirish, a resident of Aparna One in Shaikpet, alleged that the Hanuman temple in Vinobha Nagar has been playing music at a volume higher than the permitted decibel levels. “Respected @hydcitypolice . I’m a resident of Aparna One, Shaikpet. For the last few days the Hanuman temple at Vinobha Nagar is playing loud music, beyond allowed decibels till night 2/3am. I complained the Film Nagar PS,” he wrote.
The actor requested further action, revealing that the Ganesh nimmajanam festival has ended, but the loud music has still not stopped. “They asked us to bear till 25th Sept as its Ganesh nimmajanam. The festival is done but the loud music doesn’t stop. Many elders, children and working ppl in our society and disturbed by it and made many complaints in the past. But no action was taken. Request you to please look into it. Thank you..”

The complaint comes amid the Ganesh immersion festivities in Hyderabad.
However, Sirish received backlash for his complaint on social media, with netizens claiming that he hurt people’s religious sentiments. Explaining how he also believes in Lord Hanuman in another tweet, the actor shared a couple of pictures wearing a T-shirt with the deity’s photo printed on it. “Friends.. I am religious myself and pray to Lord Hanuman. Blasting music with DJ setup at 2am is not Bhakti. What I complained is abt civic sense not devotion. Thank you for understanding..,” it read.
