Pushpa 2 review


The film has garnered mostly positive reviews from critics and audiences. ABP Live’s review of the film reads, “Pushpa 2 is a pure mass entertainer. Every frame exudes swagger, with whistles and applause-worthy scenes galore. Allu Arjun’s Pushpa is larger than life yet oddly believable, making audiences root for him. The film’s length never drags; in fact, you’ll be left wanting more. It’s the kind of cinema that revitalises theatres and reminds us why movies are meant to be a shared, community experience.” Click here to read the full review.


The film is produced by Mythri Movie Makers and Sukumar Writings, with music composed by Devi Sri Prasad. It is anticipated to achieve a massive box-office opening this week.
