Now Aloo Arjuns Pushpa 2 The Rule is now scripting
box office history even before the theatrical release.
The highly anticipated sequel has already crossed 1100 crore rupees
just in pre sales.
And this is just for the opening day, making this
the most awaited film of 2024.
Here's more.
The wait is finally over.
After three years, Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandana are back
with the sequel of their popular film Pushpa.
Before you rush to cinema halls to watch Pushpa 2,
its time to take a closer look into the lesser
known facts about the Allu Arjun star.
When Allu Arjun returns as Pushpa, it has to be
the biggest release of Indian cinema, deservedly so.
The film also got 12,500 screens globally and the same
was confirmed by the makers at an event in Mumbai.
The Sukumar directorial has also broken records when it comes
to advance booking.
Even before its release, Pushpa 2 the rule entered the
100 crore club.
But what's also interesting is that the craze for Pushpa
2 the rule is at its peak.
So much so that Andhra Pradesh and Telangana government also
approved the makers request to hike the ticket prices for
13 days and the tickets for the premiere show on
December 4th were sold at ₹800 in Telangana while at
a massive price of 944 in Andhra Pradesh.
It was on November 17th when Allu Arjun and Rashmika
Mandana flew down to Patna to get the multi city
tour of Pushpa 2.
The rule ruling.
The duo launched the trailer in Bihar, a first for
any Big South Indian release.
In fact, it was reportedly Allu Arjun who was behind
this decision.
Everybody, thank you for all the love.
Fans definitely cannot keep calm as they wait to watch
Allu Arjun as Pushpa once again.
However, unfortunately, they would not be able to enjoy the
film on 3D screens yet.
As per reports, the films 3D version is still not
ready and hence the makers decided to go ahead with
the 2D release.
However, certain cities will also get to enjoy Pushpa 2
Magic in IMAX 2D and 4DX versions.
The 3D print will reportedly hit cinema halls next week
on December 13th.
This blockbuster movie is a highlight of Allu Arjuns career
for sure, but it also reportedly brought in a big
remuneration hike for him.
If reports are to be believed, the Telugu superstar has
been paid close to 300 crore rupees to play Pushparaj
in the sequel.
While there is no confirmation to the figure, if true
this will make Allu Arjun, Indias highest paid actor, surpassing
stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Prabhas and even
Rajinikanth.
