Allu Arjun’s 'Pushpa 2’ release date confirmed

On July 23, the official Twitter account for the "Pushpa" franchise reposted IMDb’s announcement, highlighting Allu Arjun’s film as the most anticipated of the year. The caption read, “#ThaggedheLe #Pushpa2TheRule Grand release worldwide on 6th DEC 2024.”

This confirmation is a relief for fans amidst rumors of a rift between Allu Arjun and "Pushpa 2" director Sukumar. Speculations suggested that Allu Arjun might be unhappy with Sukumar, potentially causing delays in production. Fans were abuzz after spotting Allu Arjun on a flight with his family, sporting a new look that deviated from his "Pushpa" character’s signature long beard.

Reports indicated that the film was set to wrap up in August. Given this timeline, fans expected Allu Arjun to maintain his "Pushpa" look. These changes led to speculations about possible disagreements between the actor and director. A report from Desi Martini suggested that industry insiders claimed Allu Arjun is upset over unscheduled shooting breaks, and trimming his beard was allegedly a way of expressing his dissatisfaction with the prolonged production schedule.

However, in a recent press meet, Allu’s friend and producer Bunny Vasu confirmed that there are no issues between the actor and director, and they are all laughing at the new rumors. "Pushpa 2: The Rule" was initially slated for release on August 15 and will now hit theaters on December 6.
