The shooting of the Allu Arjun-starrer has been going on in full swing and only a few scenes of it remain to be filmed. According to sources, both the parts of the movie are budgeted to the tune of Rs 250-270 crores. The producers took the call to split the movie into two parts because of the sheer span of its storyline.
Naveen Yerneni and Y. Ravi Shankar of Mythri Movie Makers jointly say, “The storyline and the 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. With this film, the audience shall see Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna, sharing the screen space for the first time. The first part of Pushpa is slated to release on the 13th of August, 2021 and the second part will be released in 2022.
