Since Pushpa: The Rise’s conclusion, fans have eagerly anticipated its second installment. Initially, the film was scheduled to hit theaters on August 15, but it was postponed due to unforeseen circumstances. Recent reports suggest that the release of Pushpa 2 might face further delays.
Filming of Pushpa 2 began in October 2022, continuing the story from where the first part left off. So far, the production company has only released two songs and a brief teaser. Although there were plans to release a third song, no announcement has been made yet. As such, the lack of updates and promotional activities has led to disappointment among fans.
Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2 release date postponed
Recently, lead actor Allu Arjun announced that the Pushpa 2 release date has been postponed and is now scheduled to hit theaters on December 6, 2024. The production house, Mythri Movie Makers, also shared the reason for the delay on their social media handle. Their statement reads, “We have been tirelessly working to complete the movie and release it on time. However, due to the remaining shoot and subsequent post-production work, we will not be releasing the film on August 15th, 2024.”
Despite the announcement, a report from 123telugu.com suggests that there are rumors of further postponement. According to the outlet, Allu Arjun is uncomfortable with the irregular shooting schedule. Additionally, he trimmed his beard, which is essential for his character in Pushpa, leading to a halt in filming. During this time, Allu Arjun took a European vacation with his family. Director Sukumar’s travel to the US has also caused further delays.
On the other hand, many fans have dismissed these speculations, claiming that Allu Arjun trimmed his beard for an upcoming project. However, it is important to note that the makers have not yet made an official statement regarding these rumors.
As of now, Pushpa 2 is scheduled to hit theaters on December 6, 2024.
