Tension is rising among the fans of the mega family after the 2024 Andhra Pradesh elections. Allu Arjun visited Nandyal to support YSR Congress Party MLA Silpa Ravi Chandra Kishore Reddy, while his uncle Pawan Kalyan contested the assembly elections as an opposition candidate.

When Naveen was questioned about whether rumors of family feud could affect the box office performance, he admitted that there were minor incidents during the elections. “There may have been minor incidents during the elections, but apart from politics, I am sure all their fans would like to watch the film. They (the family) are fine with each other,” he said.
Ravi immediately clarified that there were no differences between Arjun and the rest of the family, explaining that the actor did not take any side during the elections and was only in Nandyal to support a friend.
Naveen said, “We met the Deputy CM during the release of Kalki 2898 AD and he was very cooperative. I am sure that even now we will get full cooperation from him.”
For those unaware, Allu Arjun had earlier released a statement on his Nandyal visit. “First of all, I would like to clarify that I am not affiliated with any political party. I remain neutral and support my people, irrespective of their political affiliation. This also includes my uncle Pawan Kalyan, whose I will always stand with you.” Friend Ravi and my father-in-law, Sri Reddy,” the Pushpa actor’s statement read.

Recently, Arjun filed a petition in the Andhra Pradesh High Court requesting dismissal of the case against him.
