The husband of a woman who died when fans jostled during the December 4 premiere show of 'Pushpa 2' at a film theatre here, said on Friday that he doesn't hold the film's male lead Allu Arjun "responsible for the tragedy".

Bhaskar, the woman's husband, said he was "ready to withdraw" the case.

"Allu Arjun is not at fault for coming to the theatre. I am ready to withdraw the case," he told reporters.

Bhaskar said he was not informed by the police about Arjun's arrest and learned about it only from the news.

His eight-year-old son, who suffered serious injuries in the incident, has been undergoing treatment at a private super-specialty hospital here.
