Allu Arjun recently made a special appearance at the pre-release event of Maruthi Nagar Subramanyam, where he addressed ongoing rumours about the much-anticipated Pushpa 2: The Rule. The Telugu superstar put an end to speculation that the film’s release might be postponed to 2025, confidently confirming that Pushpa 2 is set to hit theatres on December 6, 2024.

Addressing his fans, famously known as the Allu Army, Arjun acknowledged the nervousness he feels when discussing his films before their release. However, he assured them that Pushpa 2 was shaping up to be a massive success. He encouraged his fans to walk into theatres with Pushpa Raj’s signature shoulder slap, infused with his own confidence, promising that the sequel would not disappoint.

After confirming the release on stage, the actor declared, “Assalu Thaggedhe Le”, which is a Telugu phrase that roughly translates to “I won’t back down at all” in English and “Main kabhi nahi jhukega” in Hindi. This phrase gained popularity after it was used by Allu Arjun’s character in the movie Pushpa: The Rise. Director Sukumar, who was also present at the event, did not object to this promise, adding to the excitement surrounding the film’s release.

Pushpa 2: The Rule has been one of the most anticipated films in Indian cinema, especially after the blockbuster success of the first instalment. The film was originally slated for an August 15, 2024 release, but production delays led to its new December release date.

In addition to confirming the release date, Arjun’s recent appearance coincides with reports that he will soon be travelling to Sri Lanka for the next phase of shooting. According to E-Times, after wrapping up the Hyderabad schedule, Arjun and the Pushpa team will film action sequences in the jungles of Sri Lanka throughout September. These scenes are expected to feature Allu Arjun alongside his gang members and other key characters.

Rashmika Mandanna, who also stars in the film, recently promised fans that Pushpa 2 would be “bigger” than ever, acknowledging the high expectations surrounding the sequel.
