In the aftermath of the Bigg Boss Telugu Season 7 finale, Hyderabad was embroiled in chaos and violence, leading to the arrest of the show's winner, Pallavi Prashanth, and his brother Mahaveer. The arrest was linked to a series of vandalism incidents that erupted in Hyderabad on Sunday night following Prashanth's victory declaration, as confirmed by the police.

The incident unfolded in Kolgur village in Gajwel mandal, Siddipet district, where the police apprehended Prashanth and Mahaveer from their residence. Both were later taken to the Jubilee Hills police station in Hyderabad, where a case was filed regarding the events that transpired on December 16 near Annapurna Studio.

Fans, ecstatic over the victory of their favorite contestant, unleashed havoc by chanting slogans and causing damage to vehicles leaving the studio, including those of the participants. The rampage extended to the vandalism of six Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) buses, a police vehicle, and private cars.

The chaos escalated further when runner-up Amardeep Chowdary's car suffered damage in the upheaval, although Chowdary himself remained unharmed. Subsequently, police intervention became necessary to quell the disturbance, as Prashanth and his followers were cautioned against organizing a rally but disregarded the warning.

Authorities are actively reviewing CCTV footage to identify the individuals responsible for the mayhem. Multiple cases were registered, encompassing the damage to RTC buses, and private vehicles, and the clash between Prashanth and Amardeep's supporters after the winner's announcement.

While Pallavi Prashanth clinched the coveted title of Bigg Boss Telugu Season 7 winner, the aftermath led to legal implications, tarnishing the celebrations that followed the announcement of his triumph.
