The first glimpse of Allu Arjun’s upcoming film Pushpa garnered rave reviews. So, the makers of the film have now announced that the film will release in two parts. The second part of the movie will released next year.
The movie stars Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna, who will be seen together for the first time. The shooting of the project has been going on in full swing and only a few scenes are yet to be filmed.
A source says, “Both the parts of the movie are budgeted to the tune of Rs 250-270 crore. The producers took the call to split the movie into two parts because of the sheer span of its storyline.”
Producers Naveen Yerneni and Y Ravi Shankar of Mythri Movie Makers jointly say, “The storyline and characters took on lives of their own and grew to a span that required the movie to be released in two parts. The excitement we witnessed for ‘Introduction To Pushpa Raj’ was phenomenal and we are determined to take it all to the next level by releasing the film as a duology. We have the best stars, artists and technicians aboard and we hope to give the audience a memorable experience in the theatres through this story.”
Pushpa revolves around the red sanders heist in the hills of Andhra Pradesh. The first part of the pan-India film is slated to release on the 13th of August, 2021 and the second part will be released in 2022.
