Arjun was asked 20 questions between 11.05am and 2.47pm, said police officers aware of the matter, adding that he answered few of them and "remained silent during most".

He was accompanied by his father Allu Aravind, father-in-law K Chandrasekhar Reddy and producer Bunny Vasu.

Deputy commissioner of police, Hyderabad (central zone), Akshansh Yadav, Chikkadpally assistant commissioner of police, Ramesh Kumar, and senior inspector Raju Yadav interrogated the actor, who has been in the eye of the storm since the December 4 stampede in the city.

On December 4, a 35-year-old woman died and her eight-year-old son was injured in a stampede at the Sandhya Theatre in Hyderabad during the screening of Pushpa 2: The Rule, which was attended by Arjun.
