Earlier today, a mob of protestors, reportedly linked to Osmania University, Hyderabad, broke into Allu Arjun’s Jubilee Hills residence. The protestors, claiming to be part of the university’s Joint Action Committee, demanded financial assistance for the stampede victim. They were found pelting stones, breaking flower pots, and holding placards all around the house. A protestor was heard saying:
