The makers of the highly anticipated movie “Pushpa: The Rule” have launched an aggressive promotional campaign, generating immense excitement among fans. Following the record-breaking birthday teaser for lead actor Allu Arjun, they have unveiled a captivating promo for the film’s first single, “Pushpa Pushpa.”

The teaser for “Pushpa: The Rule” dominated YouTube, holding the coveted #1 spot for an exceptional 138 hours. It garnered a staggering 110 million+ views and an impressive 15.5 million+ likes, demonstrating the film’s immense popularity.

The 20-second song promo for “Pushpa Pushpa” has further heightened anticipation for the full track. Featuring a pulsating chant of “Pushpa Pushpa Pushpa Raj,” the promo promises a musical extravaganza that will resonate with audiences. The makers have confirmed that the complete song will be released on May 1st at 11:07 AM, setting the stage for a potential mass anthem.

Allu Arjun’s charismatic presence in the promo guarantees an immersive cinematic experience unlike any other. The success of the music in the first part, which earned composer Devi Sri Prasad a National Award, has raised expectations for “Pushpa 2” even higher. DSP, known for his soulful melodies and electrifying compositions, is poised to deliver another musical masterpiece with “Pushpa Pushpa Pushpa Raj,” cementing his reputation as a musical genius.

“Pushpa: The Rule” is scheduled for a grand worldwide release on August 15th, 2024, and trade experts predict a phenomenal box office performance. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers on a monumental scale, the film boasts a stellar cast including Rashmika Mandanna as the leading lady. Every aspect of the production, from Devi Sri Prasad’s music to the cinematography by Mireslow Kuba Brozek, promises to be top-notch, with S Rama Krishna and N Monica serving as production designers.

Vijay Antony, the music composer-turned-actor known for Telugu blockbusters like ‘Bichagadu’ (1 & 2), is making waves on social media. His latest film as an actor, ‘Romeo’ In Telugu (Love Guru), was released on April 11th to mixed reviews. While it didn’t dominate the box office, it garnered a decent turnout. However, Antony seems unhappy with the critical reception and has taken to social media to express his displeasure.

In a fiery statement, Antony lashed out at critics, particularly one referred to as “Mr. Blue Sattai Maaran”. The statement, loosely translated, expresses his frustration with critics who “mislead” audiences and “criticize good films” like ‘Romeo’. He urges audiences to form their own opinions and not be swayed by negative reviews. Antony emphasizes that ‘Love Guru’ is a good film and encourages viewers to watch it for themselves, adding a plea: “Don’t make Romeo(Love Guru) into another ‘Anbe Sivam.'” (‘Anbe Sivam’ is a critically acclaimed film that reportedly underperformed at the box office.)

Antony’s statement has sparked a social media debate. Directed by Vinayak Vaithiyanathan, ‘Romeo’ is a romantic comedy-drama featuring Vijay Antony and Mirnalini Ravi in lead roles. The story explores the life of Arivazhagan (Antony), a Malaysia returnee who enters into an arranged marriage with Leela (Ravi), an aspiring actress.

The film navigates the couple’s journey and how their marriage shapes their lives. Despite the controversy surrounding the film’s critical reception, Vijay Antony has a busy schedule ahead. He has several films in the pipeline, including ‘Agni Siragugal’, ‘Hitler’, ‘Khakee’, and ‘Valli Mayil’. Whether these upcoming projects will spark similar debates or garner unanimous praise remains to be seen.
