Rumors about ill-will brewing between Allu Arjun and Pawan Kalyan started ever since the Nandyal controversy during the Lok Sabha elections 2024. The fact that the Pushpa actor showed support to another candidate from a different party in that constituency and not to his uncle’s party was said to have been disliked by many in the Mega family. Amid buzz of discord, Allu Arjun recently made a rare comment about his uncle.
Appearing on the recent episode of Unstoppable with NBK Season 4, Allu Arjun was involved in a fun game wherein the host showed him the picture of Pawan Kalyan on the giant screen and asked to say a few words.
In response, he looked a little startled in the beginning and then said, “Respect, Kalyan Gowda. I like his courage. All the leaders and business people in society follow me. But when I see him live, I really love how brave he is. He’s a very daring person among all of them.”
