Addressing his character assassination, he added, “The main reason for the press meet is that there is a lot of miscommunication, misinformation and wrong allegations. I am feeling extremely humilated by the character assassination.”

Allu Arjun held this press conference after Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy alleged that the actor added the film’s screening despite police’s warning against it. CM Reddy said, “Before entering the theatre and while exiting, the actor stood through the sunroof of his car and waved to the crowds, leading to thousands of fans jostling to get a glimpse of him.”
