Trouble For Allu Arjun? Police Complaint Filed Against Pushpa 2 Actor For Calling His Fans 'Army'


(MENAFN- Live Mint) Pushpa 2: The Rule: Just days ahead of the Pushpa 2 movie, Telugu star Allu Arjun has landed in trouble after calling his fans 'army'. A man named Srinivas Goud has filed a complaint against Allu Arjun at the Jawahar Police Station in Hyderabad, according to Aadhan Telugu.

The publication has posted a video and a picture of the police complaint. In the video, Srinivas says,“We have filed a complaint against Tollywood star Allu Arjun requesting him not to use the word army for his fan base. Army is an honourable post; they're the ones who protect our country, so you can't call your fans that. There are many other terms he could use instead.”
