'Pushpa 2: The Rule' back on track as climax shoot commences amid speculation of Allu Arjun-Sukumar rift

The buzz surrounding the highly anticipated Pushpa 2: The Rule has intensified, as the team recently announced the commencement of shooting its climax sequence. The official X page for Pushpa confirmed this development on Monday, sharing an exciting clip of Allu Arjun from one of the film's teasers. "Shoot update: Pushpa 2 The Rule is currently shooting a spectacular action episode for the climax. Pushpa 2 The Rule grand release worldwide on 6th DEC 2024," the post read, much to the relief and excitement of fans.

This update comes after weeks of rumors hinting at a possible fallout between director Sukumar and lead actor Allu Arjun, reportedly over delays in the film's shooting schedule. Speculation of a rift gained momentum when a video surfaced of Arjun on a family vacation, sporting a trimmed beard, leading fans to question the film's progress.

The situation was further muddied by conjecture involving co-star Fahadh Faasil, with some reports suggesting that scheduling conflicts with Faasil might be contributing to the delays. However, these rumors have been put to rest with the latest announcement, indicating that production is back on track.

Filming the climax at Ramoji Film City, the team of Pushpa 2 has reassured fans that the movie remains on schedule for its December 6, 2024 release. The sequel to the 2021 blockbuster Pushpa: The Rise sees Arjun reprising his role as Pushpa Raj, alongside Rashmika Mandanna as Srivalli and Fahadh Faasil as Bhanwar Singh Shekawat.

Produced by Mythri Movie Makers and Sukumar Writings, Pushpa 2: The Rule promises to deliver the same high-octane action and gripping narrative that made its predecessor a massive hit. The film’s music, composed by Devi Sri Prasad, has already generated positive responses, with tracks like "Pushpa Pushpa Pushpa" and "Sooseki" resonating well with the audience. With the climax shoot underway and a firm release date in place, excitement continues to build as fans eagerly await the return of Pushpa Raj on the silver screen.
