Star's Aid Insufficient for Stampede Victim's Child

One year on from a tragic stampede at a Pushpa 2 event in Hyderabad that claimed the life of 39-year-old Revati, her son Sree Tej's battle for survival continues. The nine-year-old endured a harrowing 146 days in the hospital and now requires constant neuro-rehabilitation, struggling with essential functions like eating, drinking, and breathing independently.

His father, Bhaskar, has expressed concerns that the ₹2 crore donated by Allu Arjun's family is inadequate to cover ongoing medical expenses. The interest generated from this sum falls far short of the ₹1.25 lakh needed monthly for Sree Tej's treatment. Reports of the family seeking further assistance and receiving no response led to speculation about whether the star had overlooked their plight.

Representatives for Allu Arjun have since clarified that support is being channeled through senior mediators, and that adjustments to the aid can be made if necessary. This ongoing situation underscores the profound and lasting impact of the tragedy on a family desperately trying to rebuild their child's future.
