The makers of ‘Pushpa 2’ are set to unveil its official teaser on April 8, coinciding with Allu Arjun’s birthday. Going by the inside reports, the video is likely to feature a terrific background score and whistle-worthy mass moments. The film is a sequel to ‘Pushpa’, which hit screens in 2021 and emerged as a blockbuster.
The Sukumar-directed actioner featured Bunny as a laborer-turned-smuggler and set the stage for the second installment. With the ‘Pushpa 2’ teaser almost upon us, here is a look at why ‘Pushpa’ became a sensation.
Allu Arjun’s National Award-winning Performances

Unforgettable Dialogues
The ‘Main Jhukenga Nahin’ dialogue and Allu Arjun’s trademark gesture have a fanbase of their of their own. And, rightly so. The dialogue symbolises the character’s never-give-up attitude in the face of adversity.
The ‘flower nahi, fire’ dialogue too became a rage with the audience. Politician Jignesh Mevani used a variant of the line in a speech in 2022, which served as strong proof of its popularity.
Rashmika Mandanna’s Impressive Turn As Srivalli
Romance is one of the key ingredients of commercial cinema. And, Pushpa was no exception on this front. It featured Rashmika Mandanna as the leading the leading and established her as the ‘National Crush’. Her romantic scenes with Bunny worked mainly because of the raw and intense chemistry between the two.
Moreover, the film helped Rashmika push her limits as a performer. Srivalli, a village belle, was a departure from her urban characters in ‘Geetha Govindam’ and ‘Kirik Party’.
The Songs Hit The Right Notes
Devi Sri Prasad’s soundtrack was one of the highlights of the film as each song became popular and added a new flavour to ‘Pushpa’. ‘Srivalli’ became the romantic song of the year while its hookstep broke the internet in no time. Similarly, ‘Oo Antava’/’Oo Bolega’ mesmirised fans with its bold lyrics and catchy tunes. The soundtrack also featured chartbusters like ‘Saami Saami’ and ‘Daako Daako’.
