Actor Allu Arjun visited KIMS Hospital in Hyderabad’s Begumpet on Tuesday to meet Sri Teja, the child injured during the Sandhya Theatre stampede. The tragic incident occurred during the premiere of Arjun’s latest film, Pushpa 2: The Rule. The boy, seriously injured in the stampede, is receiving constant medical care.

Several videos showed Arjun arriving at the hospital in a green sweater and black pants. Telangana State Film Development Corporation Chairman Dil Raju accompanied him. Enhanced security measures were implemented to ensure public safety during the visit.

Arjun had initially planned to visit the hospital on January 5 but postponed the trip due to police advisories. The Ramgopalpet Police Station issued a notice advising him to maintain confidentiality to avoid disruptions at the hospital.

The actor expressed deep concern for the injured boy and wished him a swift recovery. Earlier, he stated he had been eager to meet the child but delayed the visit due to ongoing legal proceedings.

As of December 24, 2024, positive signs of recovery were reported. Sri Teja responded after being unresponsive for 20 days. His father, Bhaskar, expressed gratitude for Arjun’s and the Telangana government’s support.

The stampede at Sandhya Theatre occurred on December 4 when fans gathered for the Pushpa 2 premiere. The tragedy claimed the life of a woman named Revathi and left her son severely injured. A case was filed against Arjun, his security team, and the theatre management.

Allu Arjun was arrested on December 13 but was granted interim bail by the Telangana High Court on December 14. He received regular bail on January 3. He is listed as Accused No. 11 in the ongoing investigation.
