South superstar Allu Arjun is in the news these days due to a controversy. Recently, a brand manager Kaveri Barua made some shocking allegations against the actor and his team during a podcast. Now Pushpa Star has started legal action calling these claims wrong.
What was the whole matter?
Former Royal Enfield brand manager Kaveri Barua claimed in a podcast that before meeting Allu Arjun, her team had given her a list of ’42 rules’ (Do’s and Don’ts). According to Kaveri, these rules also included that no one could ‘look the actor in the eyes’ or shake his hand. He also said that the superstar’s team is very strict and they have a ‘manager’s manager’.
