Chandigarh, December 18, 2024 (Punjab Khabarnama Bureau): During the premiere show of ‘Pushpa 2’ at the Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad, a stampede occurred, resulting in the tragic death of a woman, and her 8-year-old son, Sri Tej, was seriously injured. The child has been hospitalized since December 4, but there has been no improvement in his condition.
Reports suggest that the child’s condition remains critical, and he is on ventilator support. Recently, ‘Pushpa 2’ star Allu Arjun was arrested by the Hyderabad police in connection with this incident.
According to a health bulletin released by KIMS Kadhals Hospital in Hyderabad on Tuesday, 8-year-old Sri Tej remains in intensive care as there has been no improvement in his neurological condition.
Allu Arjun’s young fan is on mechanical ventilation. According to doctors, he is on mechanical ventilation with minimal oxygen and pressure support. They are also considering a tracheostomy (a procedure where a tube is surgically inserted into the windpipe to assist with breathing) to remove him from the ventilator. A statement from the hospital said, “The child’s fever has reduced, and his vital parameters remain stable with minimal inotropes.”
Sri Tej was placed back on oxygen support from December 12. According to a statement from the hospital, the child was brought in on December 4 due to oxygen deficiency and breathing difficulties. The oxygen support given on December 10 was removed, but on December 12, the child had to be put back on oxygen support. During this time, Hyderabad City’s Police Commissioner C.V. Anand, after visiting the hospital, stated that Sri Tej had suffered brain damage due to lack of oxygen during the stampede, and it would take a long time for him to recover.
Allu Arjun will assist the affected family with a compensation of 25 lakh rupees.

After the incident, Allu Arjun and director Sukumar apologized to the affected family. Allu Arjun announced that he would provide 25 lakh rupees in compensation along with all possible help to the family.
