Story so far…
Pushpa tells the tale of a low-rung woodcutter, who quickly rises through the ranks of a crime syndicate and ends up controlling it. Allu Arjun’s conviction in embracing a deglamorized look and delivering a memorable performance struck a chord with the audience across the country. His acting impressed not just his fans but also the who’s who of the Indian film industry. Recently, actor Karthi also tweeted, heaping praise on Arjun’s performance.
“@alluarjun completely amazed by your portrayal of #Pushpa …such an arresting performance Fire. Sukumar sir – the people and the moments you create and how you capture it is top notch. Fantastic job by the entire cast and crew,” Karthi wrote on his Twitter page.
Pushpa managed to earn more than Rs 300 crore from its worldwide ticket sales within three weeks of its theatrical run. Last week, the film was made available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
