Allu Arjun asked to remove his mask at Mumbai airport; netizens say, "Pushpa jhuk gaya"

Pushpa 2 star Allu Arjun recently found himself at the center of social media chatter after a video of his interaction with a CISF personnel at Mumbai Airport went viral. The incident occurred when the actor was briefly stopped at the airport entry gate and asked to remove his mask and sunglasses for face verification — a standard security protocol.

Wearing black track pants and a white T-shirt, Allu Arjun can be seen making his way to the airport entrance in the widely shared video.

After he presented his ID, the CISF officer requested that he take off his mask and sunglasses for identification. The actor appeared to pause and converse briefly with the officer before a member of the actor's team took over to address the staff.

Following the brief exchange, Arjun quickly lowered his mask to reveal his face before putting it back on after removing his sunglasses. Then he could go in. However, the video went viral online, particularly on Reddit, where many people criticised him for not complying immediately.
