The much-anticipated ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ is gearing up for a grand release on December 5, 2024. Initially, the makers planned to begin the celebrations with midnight shows starting from 1 AM in all major regions. However, unforeseen challenges have forced them to reconsider. Reports suggest that the Telangana government is taking steps to halt midnight screenings in Andhra Pradesh, potentially disrupting the film’s opening strategies.
Additionally, the team applied for a significant hike in ticket prices, aiming to set new records. However, the state government appears reluctant to approve these rates. While these factors might hinder the film’s opening potential, sources indicate that the makers are likely to secure permissions for standard “Devara” rights, ensuring fair pricing.
With ‘Pushpa 2’ needing a massive ₹220 crore share from the Telugu states for break even, the team is now exploring alternative plans to maintain momentum. The Puspha team is reportedly planning pre-release premieres on December 4, starting at 10 PM, as a strategy to compensate for the potential revenue loss from midnight shows. These premieres won’t be limited to the Telugu states; the makers are eyeing a nationwide rollout. High ticket prices for these pre-release events are expected to create a frenzy among fans and boost early collections.
Pushpa 2 is poised to make history, with expectations of more than ₹250 crore gross worldwide on its opening day, setting a new benchmark for Indian cinema. Fans are eagerly waiting to witness Allu Arjun’s return as Pushpa Raj in what promises to be a record-breaking release.
