Overview
- Allu Arjun’s father Allu Aravind and wife Sneha Reddy visited the family on Wednesday, May 6, in Hyderabad and told the victim’s sister they would cover her education.
- Sri Tej, the boy injured in the December 2024 Sandhya Theatre stampede, remains in neurological rehabilitation with slow gains, and his father says he still does not fully recognise family members.
- Coverage of the visit cites ongoing financial help, including a previously reported ₹2 crore fixed deposit in the boy’s name, with interest said to go toward medical costs.
- Deccan Chronicle reports monthly care runs about ₹3 lakh and says Aravind pledged to shoulder expenses, while earlier comments from the family about delays were followed by producer Dil Raju saying the issue was resolved.
- Police had booked the theatre management and Allu Arjun for culpable homicide not amounting to murder after the 2024 crush, and a team-released video of this week’s visit has refocused attention on long-term support for the family.
