If there is ever a sequel that has the potential to match the hype and hysteria like ‘Baahubali 2’, hands down it would be Allu Arjun starrer Pushpa 2 because the first part of this crime saga emerged as a sensational hit across the country and left everyone in awe. More than the box office result, it was Allu Arjun’s mannerisms and his character dynamics that created a solid impact on the audience and made them root for the second part.
As the anticipation of the sequel keeps on building, the makers of this Sukumar directional have decided to amp up the hype by giving a glimpse into the world of the lead protagonist through a small teaser. On the eve of Allu Arjun’s birthday this Monday, the teaser of Pushpa 2 will be unveiled by the team.
An interesting snippet that has been making rounds in the industry circles is that the teaser will feature glimpses from the much-hyped ‘Gangamma Jathara’ episode. This particular scene is said to be a major highlight for the sequel and the poster featuring Allu Arjun in an unconventional avatar dressed as a lady set the tone for it. The recently released poster furthered the buzz on this episode.
As the story of Pushpa is set in the backdrop of sandalwood smuggling that was once prevalent in the Chittoor region of Andhra Pradesh, director Sukumar infused some of the popular elements that are famous in this area and Gangamma Jathara is one among them. It is a popular folk festival that takes place annually in the parts of Andhra and Karnataka.
The teaser is reportedly filled with plenty of mass elements with Devi Sri Prasad’s thumping background score. Allu Arjun’s appearance and his mannerisms in the teaser are likely to pack a solid punch. Rashmika Mandanna will also get a brief screen time in the teaser.
Pushpa 2 is gearing up massive release worldwide on August 15th. The shooting formalities are nearing completion and the post-production activities are happening simultaneously.
