Allu Arjun, born in 1982, belongs to an influential family. His father is film producer Allu Aravind and his mother is Nirmala. His paternal grandfather was the noted film comedian Allu Ramalingaiah who appeared in more than 1000 films.
One thing that sets Allu Arjun apart from the extensive list of Telugu nepo babies is the fact that he recently won the National Film Award for Best Actor for his performance in Pushpa: The Rise, making him the first Telugu thespian to receive such recognition.
Allu Arjun's younger brother Allu Sirish debuted as a lead actor with 'Gouravam' and later went on to appear in films such as 'Kotha Janta', 'Srirastu Subhamastu', and 'Okka Kshanam'.
Australian cricketing stalwart David Warner has heaped praises on Telugu star Allu Arjun for winning an award for Pushpa , which the opener said he loved.
