Bharatiya Janata Party’s Rajya Sabha MP and OBC Morcha Chief K Laxman on Sunday, December 22 came in support of Allu Arjun over the controversy regarding the deadly stampede that took place in Sandhya Theatre during the premiere of Pushpa 2 The Rise on December 4.

K Laxman’s remarks came a day after chief minister Revanth Reddy and All India Majlis e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) leader Akbaruddin Owaisi accused the Tollywood actor of cashing in on the stampede.

The BJP leader accused CM Revanth and Akbaruddin Owaisi of using the Telangana Assembly as a platform to ‘target’ a prominent actor from the film industry.
