      <title>Tragic stampede at Indian Sandhya theatre during Pushpa 2 leads to arrests</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330392418/tragic-stampede-at-indian-sandhya-theatre-during-pushpa-2-leads-to-arrests</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A stampede during the premiere of “Pushpa 2: The Rule” at Sandhya Theatre resulted in the tragic death of a 35-year-old woman, Revathi, and has led to the arrest of three individuals, including one of the theatre’s owners.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The arrested have been identified as M. Sandeep (37), a co-owner of Sandhya Theatre, senior manager M. Nagaraju (51), and balcony in-charge Gandhakam Vijay Chander (53). The incident occurred when actor Allu Arjun visited the theatre, prompting fans to rush inside, leading to the chaos.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Revathi was declared dead after being rushed to Durgabai Deshmukh Hospital, while her son, Shreethej, is currently receiving treatment. The police have registered a case at Chikkadpally police station under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The accused were presented in court and have been sent to judicial custody. Following the incident, the film’s producers, Mythri Movie Makers, expressed their condolences, stating, “We are extremely heartbroken by the tragic incident during last night’s screening. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and the young child undergoing medical treatment.”&lt;/p&gt;
