The film is already set to enter the Rs 1000 crore club globally. It smashed the records of Shah Rukh Khan Jawan, Pathaan, Sunny Deol’s Gadar 2 which emerged as the blockbusters of last year.
Pushpa 2 opened to mixed reviews from critics but opened to stellar numbers. In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee wrote, “The self-same rampage is repeated in the climax. Pushpa once again dons the guise of Kali. After the hurly-burly is done and a wedding is underway to indicate an end to hostilities, Pushpa Part 2 points to a Part 3. The final chapter of the trilogy will be titled Pushpa: The Rampage. As if there hasn’t been enough already.”
Pushpa 2 – The Rule – is written and directed by Sukumar. It is produced by Naveen Yerneni and Y. Ravi Shankar of Mythri Movie Makers in association with Sukumar Writings. The film stars Allu Arjun, Fahadh Faasil, Rashmika Mandanna, Dhanunjay, Rao Ramesh, Sunil, Anasuya Bharadwaj and Ajay Ghosh.
