Law is equal for all…police will act with public safety in mind: Pawan Kalyan in first reaction to Pushpa 2 stampede case

While asserting that he does not blame the police in the case, the Andhra deputy CM — whose elder brother Chiranjeevi is married to Allu Arjun’s paternal aunt, Surekha — said that the police will act while keeping public safety in mind.

However, Kalyan also criticised the theatre staff, saying they should have informed Arjun of any issues in advance, and asked him to vacate the premises if needed, NDTV reported.

He further said that the makers of ‘Pushpa 2 ‘ should have contacted the victim’s family members, while adding that this gesture would have stopped the situation from escalating, according to the PTI report.
