Padma Shri Allu Ramalingaiah`s wife, Allu Arjun`s paternal and Ram Charan`s maternal grandmother, Allu Kanakaratnam, died on Saturday at the age of 94 from age-related diseases. Actors Allu Arjun, Chiranjeevi, and Ram Charan were spotted paying their last respects to her and turned pallbearers, carrying Allu Kanakaratnam`s body on their shoulders.
In a paparazzi video that has surfaced on Instagram, Allu Arjun, his son Allu Ayaan, and Chiranjeevi were at the front as pallbearers, alongside many more guys from the family. Ram Charan was on the other end. They gingerly took her body out onto a bamboo bed wrapped in white fabric.
In another video, Allu was seen hugging his son tightly as he broke down in tears. Actor Ram Charan, who was in Mysore filming his forthcoming film Peddi, left to spend time with his family in Hyderabad. He was upset as he paid his final respects to Allu Kanakaratnam. Upon his arrival, he hugged Allu Aravind. He also placed rose petals on her feet and was seen with his hands clasped in front of her torso. Her lifeless remains were preserved at her son Allu Aravind`s house so that family and friends may express their sorrow.
