About Pushpa 2 trailer The trailer launch of the upcoming potential box-office juggernaut ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ was unveiled in Patna. If the audience cherished the first part of the movie, the trailer of the sequel to the film promises a high-voltage action-drama with Telugu superstar Allu Arjun at the forefront. The trailer opens with a person in background introducing Allu Arjun’s titular character of Pushpa as the one who is not afraid of power, and has no greed for money. The trailer then goes on to show several electrifying moments mostly in terms of action set pieces. There’s also a glimpse of Rashmika Mandanna’s iconic character of Srivalli in the movie. However, the game truly changes with the entry of the Malayalam superstar Fahadh Faasil in the trailer.

Directed by Sukumar and produced by Mythri Movie Makers, the music of the film is from T Series. ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ is set to arrive in cinemas on December 5, 2024.
