Days after celebrity choreographer Jani Master was arrested in connection with the alleged sexual assault of a junior female colleague. Actress Jhansi, while speaking on behalf of the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce claimed that a ‘big hero’ had assured the victim of professional support. Many assumed that this person in question was superstar Allu Arjun.
‘Pushpa’ producer Ravi Shankar, who was promoting ‘Mathu Vadalara 2’ in Hyderabad was asked about Allu’s involvement in providing professional support to the alleged victim. He said, “Whatever happened between the girl and Jani Master is personal to them. She was hired long back as an additional choreographer for our film and will remain throughout the filmmaking process. Jani Master was supposed to choreograph a special number for Pushpa 2 but this happened two days before we planned it.”
