‘Daaku Maharaaj’ event cancelled after Tirupati stampede

“Daaku Maharaaj,” starring Nandamuri Balakrishna in the title role, was set to hold a pre-release ceremony in Ananthapuram today, with Andhra Pradesh’s minister and Balakrishna’s son-in-law Nara Lokesh serving as the chief guest. However, the makers have now cancelled the event.

A stampede occurred at the Tirumala temple in Tirupati, killing six people and severely injuring more than 50 more. Following the tragic incident, the team of “Daaku Maharaaj” decided not to host the event in Ananthapuram since it would be inappropriate.

The producing house released the following statement.

“In light of the recent events in Tirupati, our team is deeply affected by the tragic incident that has occurred. . It is heart-wrenching to see such an incident occur at the Lord Venkateswara temple – a place of devotion, hope for millions and a cherished part of our families’ traditions. Given the circumstances we feel it is not appropriate to proceed with #DaakuMaharaaj Pre Release Event as planned. With a heavy heart and utmost respect for the devotion and sentiments of the people, we have decided to call off today’s event.”

The film “Daaku Maharaaj” is set to hit theaters on January 12, 2025. Bobby directed the picture, and Naga Vamsi produced it.
