Allu's support for a member of the YSRCP raised many eyebrows, considering Pawan was contesting against the party. It sparked speculations about infighting and political differences within the party.
In light of the controversy, Allu Arjun issued a statement distancing himself from politics. "Firstly, I want to clarify that I am not affiliated with any political party. I remain neutral and support my people, regardless of their political affiliations. This includes my uncle Pawan Kalyan, whom I will always stand by, along with my friend Ravi and my father-in-law Mr. Reddy," he said.
Pawan is not the first member of the Mega family to make inroads in electoral politics. Earlier, his elder brother also had a successful stint as a central minister during the UPA rule.
