He was granted interim bail for 4 weeks on a personal bond of Rs 50,000. Later on January 3, Allu Arjun was granted regular bail in the case.
The custody ended on December 27 and following which Allu Arjun appeared in court via video conference. However, no decision was announced by the court then and the next hearing was pushed to December 30th, which was later postponed to January 3. On that day, the actor was finally granted regular bail.
