Reports suggest that Allu Arjun was in Mumbai for work when he heard the news. The actor immediately cancelled his schedule and returned to Hyderabad. Similarly, Ram Charan, who was in Mysore shooting for director Buchi Babu Sana’s Peddi, halted production and flew back to join his family for the last rites.
For the unversed, Ram Charan and Allu Arjun are cousins, with Allu Aravind and megastar Chiranjeevi being brothers-in-law. Mourning his mother-in-law’s demise, Chiranjeevi earlier penned an emotional note on X. He wrote, “Our mother-in-law.. The demise of Kanakarathnamma Garu, wife of Sri Allu Ramalingayya Garu, is extremely heartbreaking. The love, courage, and life values she showed to our families will forever be an inspiration to us. I pray to God that their sacred soul attains peace. Om Shanti.”
