Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 2 The Rule released in theatres on December 5. It stars Fahad Faasil in a major role along with Dhananjaya, Jagapathi Babu, Jagadeesh Prathap Bandari, Anasuya Bharadwaj, and Rao Ramesh in important roles. The energetic music has been composed by popular musician Devi Sri Prasad while Mirosław Kuba Brożek handled the cinematography.
After more than month of record-breaking box office run, the producers announced fan bonanza, deciding to re-release the film with additional twenty minutes of footage. Titled Pushpa 2 The Rule Reloaded Version, the extended version was set for January 14 release in Telugu and Hindi language. It was pushed by a few days and hit theatres on January 17. The extended version is available on Netflix with a total runtime of three hours and 44 minutes.
Pushpa franchise
The Pushpa storm began in 2021 when Allu Arjun appeared on the big screen as Pushpa Raj, a dreaded sandalwood smuggler in Sukumar’s Pushpa The Rise. Arjun essayed a man with troubled childhood who turns his limitations into his strength, becoming the dreaded leader of the very group that exploited him. The film broke box office records beyond language barriers, especially in the Hindi belt, apart from the original language belt.
With the second film setting yet another benchmark for the box office, the bar has been raised higher. Pushpa 2 The Rule ended with a teaser for the third fan and gave a sneak peek for fans to anticipate the sequence of events for the third part of the franchise – Pushpa 3: The Rampage.
