A strange list about
Allu Arjun suddenly started spreading online and it claimed there were “42 dos and don’ts” for meeting the star. It said people should not look into his eyes and also said they should not shake his hand.
The rule also said he travels with a huge team and many layers of managers. The clip spread fast.
The talk became so big that Allu Arjun’s team had to step in and released a strong message. They said the claims were false. They said strict action would be taken against the person behind the misinformation.
'Pushpa' co-star REACTS
'Pushpa' actor
Rajasekhar defended Allu Arjun in a clear way. In a video on his official X page, he said, “Pulling down a National Award–winning actor to feed an identity crisis is not right. I have worked very closely with him for four years during the making of Pushpa: The Rise and Pushpa: The Rule.”
He added,, “During evening snack time, most stars send their spot boys to fetch food. But he would come himself, sit with the production boys, and eat at the same place as everyone else. How can you accuse a man with such a heart of having a list of 42 dos and don’ts? All this is baseless.”
He did not stop there, “Allu Arjun acknowledges and greets everyone on set. If he ever comes late, he even apologises for it. More than a star, he is a grounded artist.”
Where the rumour began
The whole issue began with a podcast clip. In that clip, Kaveria Baruah, who works in media sales, spoke to the YouTube channel Sweekriti Talks.
Talking about Allu Arjun, she said, “Before meeting him, we were given a note with 42 dos and don’ts. They have a manager for a manager for a manager—one big manager, then another who reports to him. And they are very strict. Don’t look into sir’s eyes, don’t shake hands.”
Social media supports Allu Arjun
Fans also started posting online. Many wrote short messages. One user said, "Don't believe them! We stand with the Icon Star!" Another person commented, "Mocking a star with ‘Don’t look into Sir’s eyes, don’t shake his hands’ might get you clicks, but facts still matter."
Allu Arjun's team says enough
