Wherever Icon Star Allu Arjun goes, style follows—and so does controversy, especially on social media. This time, it’s not a dance move or a movie look but a T-shirt that’s ignited a wildfire of reactions online.
In a now-viral appearance, Allu Arjun was spotted wearing a tee that reads:
“NelluriPedda Reddy Thaluka”—a throwback punchline made famous by Brahmanandam in the cult film Anaganaga Oka Roju. Sounds harmless? Think again.
This seemingly fun quote has sent PawanKalyan fans into decoding mode, sparking speculation that Bunny is throwing a stylish counter at them. Why? Because “Pedda Reddy Thaluka” is being seen as a cheeky take on the much-hyped “Pithapuram MLA GariThaluka” reference that’s popular among JanaSena followers.
And let’s not forget, the cold breeze between Bunny and Pawan fans has been blowing for years now. From subtle shade to social media spats, the fan rivalry is nothing new. But this T-shirt seems to have poked a fresh fire.
While Allu Arjun may have rocked the tee just for laughs, hardcore fans of Power Star are convinced it was a deliberate dig—an indirect jab dressed in style. What followed? A full-blown comment war on Twitter, Insta reels, and meme pages. Team Bunny vs Team Power Star—round 573.
