Fans notice sai durgha tej has unfollowed allu arjun on twitter and instagram

All eyes were on Pawan Kalyan on Wednesday for his swearing-in ceremony as the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. But eagle-eyed fans also spotted something else about his family – actor Sai Durgha Tej, formerly Sai Dharam Tej, unfollowed his cousin, actor Allu Arjun, on both X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram.

Sai Durgha Tej unfollows Allu Arjun

Fans took to X on Wednesday evening to express disbelief that Sai has unfollowed both Allu and his wife, Sneha Reddy, on both social media platforms. The only member of the Allu family he seems to be following is Allu Sirish.

Fans began sharing screengrabs of how Sai is only following Sirish on Instagram, writing, “Actor #SaiDharamTej unfollowed #AlluArjun on instagram & Twitter.”

Another wrote, “Actor #SaiDharamTej has unfollowed both #AlluArjun and #SnehaReddy on social media, instead following only #AlluSirish.”

Unfortunately, fans also immediately began taking sides and using expletives against the actors, depending on whose side they were on.

What happened?

The team Sai and Allu share to find out if the cousins had a rift. They are yet to respond. Allu has never followed anyone on X, and has followed only his wife on Instagram.

A source close to the family says Sai hasn't followed Allu for a while now. They told us, “It’s only now that people noticed that Sai hasn’t been following Arjun and Sneha when he unfollowed them soon after the elections.” Both the actors’ team and the source refused to elaborate further.

Allu Arjun says he’s ‘neutral’

Allu has been MIA since Pawan’s Jana Sena Party (JSP) won the elections in Andhra Pradesh. The actor wasn’t present at the swearing-in ceremony in Andhra Pradesh or when Pawan celebrated the win with the family in Hyderabad. Sai Durgha Tej, Varun Tej, and the rest of the cousins were present. Before the elections, Allu tweeted in support of his uncle Pawan and later went to Nandhyal to support YSRCP constituency candidate S Ravi Chandra Kishore Reddy.

He later said, “Firstly, I want to clarify that I'm not affiliated with any political party. I remain neutral and support my people, regardless of their political affiliations. This includes my uncle Pawan Kalyan, whom I'll always stand by, along with my friend Ravi and my father-in-law, Mr. Reddy. I made a promise to my friend, Mr. Ravi, to support him, but I couldn't fulfill it last time. To keep my word, this time I went to Nandyal to support him.”

Priyanka chopra says her style choices help her be confident, represent who she is: i wear what i need to succeed

Priyanka Chopra is a global style icon. The actor has demonstrated her prowess in bringing out drop-dead gorgeous red carpet glamour and serving odd-but-cool couture with her many appearances around the globe. When in the spotlight, Priyanka carries herself with utmost elegance, offering even more to the ensembles she wears. However, according to her recent interview with Forbes, when it comes to her personal fashion choices, Priyanka sees style as a resource to access her confidence, represent who she is, and help her succeed.

Priyanka Chopra says she dresses for confidence

In a conversation with Forbes, Priyanka Chopra opened up about her style choices and the idea she attaches to what she chooses to wear. She said, "I wear whatever I need to to feel my most confident. It's an amazing resource that I have access to in my job. But even when I didn't [have access to fashion], like when I was in high school, I used my style and my fashion to be able to feel better. Then, it was more about looking in my closet and saying, who is this girl today?"

Priyanka added that she doesn't regard her wardrobe as an aspirational commodity. Instead, the actor thinks of the clothes she wears as functional accessories. It allows Priyanka to shed societal expectations and wear what makes her feel confident. She said, "Style is about so much more than the clothes you wear. It's about finding what makes you feel confident, asking yourself how you feel when you wear certain clothes. How do you want to be perceived? How you approach the clothes that you wear can help you achieve confidence."

Priyanka added, "You just have to represent who you are and to be able to find that is very powerful. I could be in sweats, or I could be in a gown. But at the same time, if it's time for another gig or another job, I wear what I need to succeed."
