The much-awaited teaser of Sukumar’s “Pushpa 2: The Rule,” starring Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna, was released on the actor’s birthday, April 8. While the teaser was packed with action showcasing Allu’s swag as Pushpa Raj, the highlight was undoubtedly his unique avatar in a saree.
In the teaser, a temple festival (jatara) scene unfolds, with Allu Arjun’s character, Pushpa Raj, making a striking appearance. Dressed in an androgynous Mathangi vesham (avatar), Allu Arjun effortlessly blends elements of femininity and masculinity. Sporting a blue pattu saree, jhumkas, ghungroo, bangles, nose pin, and other jewelry, Allu Arjun’s portrayal is captivating, showcasing a fusion of traditional attire and rugged masculinity.
The significance of Allu’s Mathangi vesham attire goes beyond just aesthetics. It reflects the authenticity of the character’s roots in Chittoor, staying true to the region’s cultural essence. The teaser hints at crucial scenes set during the Gangamma Thalli jatara in Tirupathi, emphasizing the character’s journey and evolution.
This bold portrayal of Pushpa Raj’s character marks a departure from his macho persona in the first installment. The teaser offers glimpses into Pushpa Raj’s transformed life, hinting at significant changes and challenges ahead.
Directed by Sukumar, “Pushpa 2: The Rule” is set to release on August 15. Alongside Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna, the film features an ensemble cast including Fahadh Faasil, Jagapathi Babu, Brahmaji, Anasuya Bharadwaj, and others. With music by Devi Sri Prasad, the film promises to be a riveting continuation of the Pushpa saga, offering fans an intriguing blend of action, drama, and cultural authenticity.
