Telugu superstar Allu Arjun’s grandmother, Allu Kanakaratnam, passed away on Saturday, August 30, at the age of 94. Her mortal remains have been brought to producer Allu Aravind’s residence, with the final rites scheduled to be performed later in the afternoon at Kokapet, Hyderabad.
As reported by Glute, at the time of her demise, Allu Arjun was in Mumbai. On hearing the news, he cancelled his schedule and is expected to reach Hyderabad by afternoon. Actor Ram Charan, who was in Mysore shooting for director Buchi Babu Sana’s Peddi, also paused filming to return home for the funeral.
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 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.”

మా కుటుంబాలకు ఆమె చూపిన ప్రేమ, ధైర్యం, జీవిత విలువలు ఎప్పటికీ మాకు ఆదర్శం.
వారి పవిత్ర ఆత్మకు శాంతి చేకూరాలని దేవుడిని ప్రార్థిస్తున్నాను.
ఓం శాంతిః 🙏
