It should be remembered that Pushpa: The Rise generated quite a stir when it debuted in theatres in December 2021. Its conversations and music went viral, and the filmmakers are getting ready to release the sequel.
Pushpa’s makers presented an intriguing first-look poster of Allu Arjun from the sequel, Pushpa: The Rule, on the occasion of Allu Arjun’s birthday.
In the billboard, he appeared in an intense and radically different avatar, wearing a saree, gold jewellery, and a lemon garland. In addition, the actor is seen brandishing a gun. However, the makers have yet to confirm the film’s official release date.
