Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, along with other prominent political figures such as AIMIM MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi and Minister Komatireddy Venkata Reddy, have all made statements regarding actor Allu Arjun, intensifying the controversy. In a recent session of the Telangana Legislative Assembly, discussions on Allu Arjun took up nearly 30 minutes—an unusual focus, given that the assembly's primary role is to address public concerns.

These remarks have raised questions about the undue prominence given to an actor in political discourse, with many questioning whether such matters should take precedence over pressing issues affecting the people of Telangana. This has sparked debate within the Telugu film industry (TFI), with some fearing that the entertainment sector is being drawn into political controversy.

Meanwhile, social media users have drawn comparisons to the stance of former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, who was known for his support of the Telugu film industry. Under his leadership, efforts were made to establish a film industry hub in Visakhapatnam, emphasizing his commitment to fostering growth in the sector. Netizens have been revisiting his speeches, recalling his positive relationship with the film fraternity.
