“Sukumar gained nationwide recognition with ‘Pushpa: The Rise,’ starring Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna. Despite receiving mixed reviews, the film performed exceptionally well in the Hindi market, thanks to its popular songs and Allu Arjun’s star power, grossing nearly 350 crores worldwide. Now, Sukumar aims to surpass this success with ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule.’
Known for his meticulous approach, Sukumar has a reputation for postponing release dates to ensure quality. ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ is no exception, with its release officially pushed to December 6, 2024, from the originally planned August 15, coinciding with India’s Independence Day.
Fans and audiences are skeptical about this new release date, fearing further delays. However, Sukumar is committed to delivering a film that exceeds the prequel’s success, targeting a global box office gross of close to 1000 crores. Allu Arjun is also deeply invested in making ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ a monumental hit.”
