This comes almost a month after a woman lost her life at Pushpa 2’s benefit screening.
Ram Charan’s Game Changer will be released this month.
Two Ram Charan fans lost their lives on Saturday night after attending the pre-release event for Game Changer in Rajahmundry. Ram Charan and Pawan Kalyan, Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, were in attendance. Dil Raju, the producer of Game Changer, has offered the victim’s families support of Rs 10 lakh.
The two fans have been identified as Arava Manikanta (23) and Thokada Charan (22) from Gaigolupadu in Kakinda. After attending the event on Saturday night, they were returning home on a bike when a van coming from the opposite direction hit them. Although both of them were rushed to the Peddapuram Hospital, they did not survive the fatal injuries. A case has been registered with the Rangampeta police.
Dil Raju, who is one of the producers of Game Changer, has offered his monetary support to their families. A post on the official X (formerly Twitter) account of his production house, Sri Venkateswara Creations, reads, “Producer #DilRaju garu announced ₹10 lakhs and assured support to the families of the two individuals who tragically lost their lives in the accident following the #GameChanger event. Our deepest condolences to their loved ones in this difficult time.”
Additionally, Dil Raju expressed his condolences and said, “I just got to know that after the event, while returning, two members tragically passed away. That is why Pawan Kalyan asked me if there was an alternative to this event, as he mentioned how deeply saddening it is when something unfortunate happens after such a big event.”
He added, “But, Ram Charan and I insisted and asked for this event. I pray that their souls rest in peace, and we will stand by and support the two families. I am immediately sending Rs 5 lakhs each and assuring you that we will stand by them.” Pawan Kalyan has also promised financial aid of Rs 5 lakh each to the victim’s families.
This comes almost a month after a woman lost her life at Pushpa 2’s benefit screening. Allu Arjun was taken into custody in Hyderabad after a fan died in a stampede caused due to his arrival at the film’s screening. While the actor is yet to be acquitted of the charges, he is currently out on interim bail.
