Pushpa 2: Shocking Delay for Allu Arjun’s Magnum Opus
Months since the anticipation began, finally, the urge over Pushpa 2:
The Rule, starring Allu Arjun, is reaching new heights as its date of release is near. With just 13 days left until its scheduled premiere on December 5, time to wait no more. Just recently, the trailer broke all records when it gained over 100 million views in 24 hours from all languages, thus an indication of how people have waited for so long and are therefore highly agitated. However, rumors of another postponement have emerged in the midst of celebrations among fans.
Pushpa 2 had suffered enough delays already, but when the release date was advanced to December 5, that came as a welcome surprise to fans. Promos have been going at it full swing, with the makers going out with teaser material, posters, and the much-awaited trailer. All that stroking up of confidence in the promotional strategy made people feel the release date was like chiseled in stone. Well, the news now is hardly that.
According to Track Tollywood reports, the shoot part of Pushpa 2 is not yet complete.
A whole song is to be shot. The shooting will go up to the 27th or 28th of November. All raised their eyebrows on this kind of tight schedule, for post-production activities like editing, mixing and finalizing other technical details would take much time, at least more than that available now. This has aroused one view that the movie may go a week or more later than its scheduled date. ### Breathing Room Needed
Besides post-production issues, the other critical aspect affecting the hitch-free release is the time elapsed between shoot and opening day of the movie. Campaigns on promotions, music videos, interviews, and other items to be accommodated with enough spaces and breathing rooms to be efficiently communicated to the people.
Another widely-awaited song is the item number, Kissik, which stars Sreeleela and Allu Arjun, and will be released on November 24 at 7:02 PM IST. The hype that could be created with this song too adds to the need for more time for this purpose.
Stakes, of course, for Pushpa 2 are very high. Its forerunner, Pushpa:
The Rise, is a super-hit film that catapulted Allu Arjun into pan-Indian stardom and has set a pretty high watermark for its sequel. Follow-up promises to be much bigger and grander in terms of story, electrifying performances, and stellar production values.
The trailer of Pushpa 2 has already given everyone an indication of the scale- action-packed sequences, intense drama, and charismatic portrayal of Pushpa Raj by Arjun- However, with so much buzz about this film, even a minor glitch in execution would impact opening at the box office. So, the crucial decision to postpone comes in maintaining the momentum.
Fans, who have been eagerly counting down to the last days, are naturally worried about all this delay speculation. However, many agree that it would be wise if the film’s release was postponed for quality. Hype for the film and loyalty for Allu Arjun’s fan base ensure that not a single moment of delay can dampen people’s enthusiasm.
The industry is full of discussion about how the producers are going to approach this matter. It would be a challenging task on how to balance the crunch of dates with the advertisement needs of the movie, whether December 5 stands or there is another date in advance or beyond.
The Bigger Picture
As such the rumors were floating around, it has been very much evident that the makers of Pushpa 2 put no stone unturned together in bringing the cinematic experience together. The trailer recently launched and the movie soon to be released, Kissik, is the testament they hold for bringing excitement for them and showing the blockbuster sequel promise to be done.
Be it a delayed arrival or whether Pushpa 2 hits the screens right on schedule, one thing is pretty sure: the film will be a movement in Indian cinema.
Fans and industry are still holding their breaths to see whether Allu Arjun and team could do better than Pushpa: The Rise. For now, all eyes are on the word from the makers, as the countdown is on to what promises to be a larger-than-life cinematic experience.
