Amid the growing buzz and rumors about 'Pushpa 2: The Rule' possibly releasing on OTT, the film's production house, Mythri Movie Makers, has stepped in to clear the air. On Friday, the team posted an update on X (formerly Twitter), reassuring fans that the film will not be available for streaming anytime soon. They confirmed that 'Pushpa 2' will stay exclusive to theaters for at least 56 days, encouraging everyone to catch the film on the big screen during the holiday season. The tweet also described the movie as a "wildfire" that should be experienced in theaters, highlighting its massive theatrical appeal.
Fans quickly took to the post to share their thoughts. Many expressed their excitement over the film's big-screen experience, agreeing that 'Pushpa 2' truly deserves to be seen in cinemas. One fan praised the decision to keep the movie in theaters for a longer period before it hits OTT, calling it a great move to preserve the magic of its theatrical release. Others echoed the same sentiment, showing support for giving the film time to shine in theaters before considering any digital release.
In addition to the OTT update, Mythri Movie Makers also teased something special for viewers. A new version of 'Pushpa 2' is set to release on December 25, featuring an extra 18 minutes of footage. This extended version promises to enhance the experience even further, building excitement among fans eager to see more of Pushpa Raj's journey.
'Pushpa 2: The Rule' is the highly awaited sequel to the 2021 hit 'Pushpa: The Rise'. The first film took the nation by storm, not just in Telugu but across various languages, helping Allu Arjun gain pan-Indian fame. Directed by Sukumar, the sequel continues Pushpa Raj's (Allu Arjun) saga, a laborer-turned-sandalwood smuggler. Alongside Allu Arjun, the film features Rashmika Mandanna as Srivalli and Fahadh Faasil as the antagonist, SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat. The film also stars Jagapathi Babu, Dhananjaya, Rao Ramesh, Sunil, and Anasuya Bharadwaj in important roles.
Since its release on December 5, 'Pushpa 2' has been a box-office sensation, earning ₹1004.35 crore nett in India alone. With its massive success, the film has entered the prestigious ₹1,000 crore club, joining the ranks of other blockbuster films like 'Baahubali 2', 'Dangal', 'RRR', 'Pathaan', and 'Jawan'. The momentum shows no signs of slowing down, and it's expected that 'Pushpa 2' will continue to dominate the box office in the coming weeks, cementing its place as one of the biggest films of 2024.
