On the other hand, Sandhya Theater had informed the police about Allu Arjun’s arrival at the film premiere two days before the event. According to Aaj Tak’s news, a letter sent by Sandhya Theater to the police has also come to light. Despite Sandhya Theater Management informing the police, no concrete steps were taken regarding security. Let us tell you that earlier the police was claiming that no prior information was given about Allu Arjun’s arrival at Sandhya Theatre, due to which police arrangements were not made there and a stampede broke out after the actor’s arrival.
