Big update: 'Pushpa 2' makers confirm they've locked 'first half'
What's the story
The much-awaited sequel, Pushpa 2, will be released globally in theaters on December 6. The film's makers announced the same with a big update on Tuesday.
Allu Arjun will return as Pushpa Raj and Rashmika Mandanna will reprise her role as Srivalli.
Interestingly, the film will be released on the same day as Vicky Kaushal's Chhaava. This means that Mandanna—who plays a lead role in both films—will be competing against herself.
