The year 2024 has been a rollercoaster for Indian cinema, delivering massive hits like Kalki 2898 AD, Stree 2, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, and Singham Again. Yet, it’s Pushpa 2: The Rule that has stolen the spotlight, breaking records even before hitting theaters.
The Allu Arjun starrer achieved a historic feat by becoming the fastest Indian movie to earn $1 million (approximately ₹8 crore) in pre-sales in the US. Mythri Movie Makers proudly announced this milestone, highlighting the unparalleled anticipation surrounding the sequel to 2021’s blockbuster Pushpa: The Rise.
Directed by Sukumar, the film features a stellar cast, including Fahadh Faasil, Rashmika Mandanna, and Jagapathi Babu, along with a cameo by Sreeleela. Allu Arjun, who earned the National Film Award for Best Actor for his unforgettable role as Pushpa Raj, is poised to deliver another iconic performance.
Ahead of its December 5, 2024 release, Pushpa 2 has already amassed ₹900 crore through theatrical rights (₹650 crore) and digital streaming rights acquired by Netflix for ₹270 crore. This anticipation soared further with the release of its action-packed trailer on November 18 in Patna, Bihar, generating global buzz.
Allu Arjun recently hinted at expanding the Pushpa saga into a franchise, teasing a potential Pushpa 3. Fans eagerly await the sequel, which promises to be an action-packed cinematic spectacle.
