Cong MLA Threatens Allu Arjun: 'Won't allow your films to run in Telangana'

Actor Allu Arjun and MLA Bhupathi Reddy

Nizamabad : Telangana Congress MLA Bhupathi Reddy has issued a stern warning to actor Allu Arjun, threatening to prevent the release of his films in the state unless he refrains from making further comments about the Chief Minister.

Speaking at a public meeting in Nizamabad, Reddy stated that Arjun should respect his position as an actor and stay focused on his career. 

The Congress MLA said, "I am warning you not to speak about our CM. You're from Andhra and should behave like one. You have come here for livelihood.

 I am speaking as a ruling party MLA, so respect the position given to you and do your business.

 You are just an actor. You do your work and live; what is your contribution to Telangana? We are issuing a warning to you--if you don't change your behavior, Congress workers will not let your movies run."
