Pushpa 2 is the most anticipated film in Indian cinema, achieving over 1000 crore in pre-business. The internal business is in full swing, with USA advance bookings recently opening and already crossing 500K, setting a new record as the fastest Indian film to reach this milestone—showing the immense craze surrounding it.
On the downside, big-budget films like this typically enter the promotion phase by now, but Pushpa 2 is still in production. Sukumar is known for his continuous last-minute work, which has delayed filming.
Recent news suggests that DSP may be replaced for the background score by other music directors. Reportedly, Sukumar and Allu Arjun are not satisfied with DSP’s focus on concerts, which they believe could impact the film’s quality.
Sources indicate that bringing in other music directors may not be Sukumar’s decision, but rather DSP’s, as he has requested additional time to ensure high-quality work. He expressed that he doesn’t want to compromise on the music, given its importance, but with the film’s release timeline fixed, there’s no room for delay.
DSP has reportedly informed Sukumar that other music directors could handle some BGM portions, with the final choice being based on the best work. Although Sukumar and Allu Arjun may be frustrated with the delay, Sukumar’s own prolonged work on the project may also be a key factor.
But logically, Sukumar is the one to blame, not DSP, as he has continually delayed the film. How can a music director deliver the best background score with constant shooting delays? DSP worked until the last minute for part one as well, and he’s now made the right call by bringing in other music directors. Typically, music directors do not make these kinds of decisions.
