Allu Arjun’s ‘Pushpa’ to re-release ahead of ‘Pushpa 2’
With less than a month left for the release of Allu Arjun’s much-awaited movie Pushpa 2: The Rule, the makers of the film are re-releasing Pushpa 1 across the USA.
The franchise’s first film will hit theatres in the USA on November 19. Prathyangira Cinemas, which will re-release the film in the USA, took to X to share the news.
Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 1: The Rise turned out to be a huge blockbuster after its release in December 2021. Interestingly, there has not been a confirmation of the film’s re-release in India.
Also starring Rashmika Mandanna, Pushpa: The Rise depicted the rise of a low-wage labourer (Arjun) in the smuggling syndicate of red sandalwood, a rare wood that grows only in the Seshachalam Hills of Andhra Pradesh state.
The first part had set up a clash between Arjun’s titular character and Malayalam star Fahadh Faasil’s menacing inspector Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat.
Pushpa 2: The Rule is scheduled for a grand release worldwide on December 5, 2024. Pushpa 2: The Rule is produced by Naveen Yerneni and Y Ravi Shankar of Mythri Movie Makers in association with Sukumar Writings. The film will be released in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Bengali and Malayalam languages.

Parvathi Nayar’s new exhibition, The Primordial, in Mumbai, traces oceans, pepper and climate change
Opened on March 12, the exhibition marks the artist’s first solo show in Mumbai in nearly two decades. Known for her intricate graphite drawings and multidisciplinary practice spanning installation, photography, video, and climate change, her artistic journey has long engaged with the themes of ecology, climate change and the natural world. In this ongoing exhibition, these strands converge through a series of works centred on water, salt, and pepper — materials that carry natural and historic weight across centuries.
