If morning shows the day, then the trailer launch of Pushpa 2: The Rule in Patna is a clear precursor for the spectacular success that awaits the film when it releases on December 5.
Shatrughan Sinha on Pushpa 2: The Rule trailer released in Patna, “So glad Bihar is finally taken seriously by the Indian film industry”
Thousands of people gathered at Patna’s historic Gandhi Maidan to see Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandana hold centre-stage while the audience cheered, clapped and whistled ceaselessly. Each time the two struggled with Hindi, the public cheered.
So much so that Allu Arjun, no stranger to hysterical ovation, seemed overwhelmed. “I’ve seen lots of appreciative crowds. But never like this,” Arjun was heard saying.
At some point, the crowds did become unruly and had to be restrained. Luckily the police bandobast was impeccable. However, the over-excited section of the audience tried to get on stage, in vain.
Later crowds gathered at the hotel where Arjun was stationed for an hour or so. They all wanted pictures with the Telugu superstar. Unfortunately, he couldn’t oblige everyone.
This time, the Pushpa team is aiming at a much wider release than the first film in the franchise. It is much bigger than the first film, and we aren’t talking about just the budget. The scale of Pushpa 2 is not just far ahead of the first film, it is also unlike anything we’ve seen before.
The estimated budget of the second film in the Pushpa franchise is Rs. 250-275 crores. And we are not talking about the budget that is being set aside for the pre-release marketing and promotion. No matter what it takes, Allu Arjun wants Pushpa 2: The Rule to be bigger globally than any Indian film. And going by the early responses, there is no stopping Arjun’s dream plans.
Pushpa 2: The Rule is not only the most eagerly awaited film of 2024 it is also expected to smash its own box office records. The last Pushpa release in 2021 had a blast. This one is expected to go even further.
The film’s Oscar winning sound recordist Resul Pookutty said, “In the earlier film, we were testing the ground. This time we’ve gone all-out to give the audience what I’d call the complete full-on Pushpa experience. If you thought Allu Arjun was a sensation in the first Pushpa film, wait till you see what he has done this time.”
Resul calls it a paisa-vasool experience. “Mark my words, it will be bigger than anything in recent times. The experience is beyond anything audiences expect,” he said.
As for Patna being chosen as the handpicked venue for the trailer release of Pushpa 2: The Rule, apparently the Pushpa team wanted to unleash the full fury of the trailer in a city that most aptly represents the mass audience.
Bihari Babu Shatrughan Sinha couldn’t be happier. “I am so glad Bihar is finally being taken seriously by the Indian film industry,” he said. “The fact that a film as massive as Pushpa went to Patna to release its trailer is a matter of pride for us. Bihar gave the super-duper star Allu Arjun a massive welcome. In Bihar we know how to honour our guests. Especially someone like Allu Arjun who has re-written the rules of the Indian box office.”
