Mumbai: Actor Allu Arjun on Wednesday surprised his fans by unveiling a new poster of his film ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ on his Instagram account. 

The poster shows Allu Arjun’s character Pushpa Raj standing against a red backdrop.

The poster was also uploaded on Mythri Movie Makers’ social media handle. 

“100 Days to go for #Pushpa2TheRule Get ready for an ICONIC box office experience. THE RULE IN CINEMAS on 6th DEC 2024,” the caption read. 

Produced by Mythri Movie Makers and Muttamsetty Media, the film will see Allu, Rashmika Mandanna, and Fahadh Faasil reprise their roles as Pushpa Raj, Srivalli, and Bhanwar Singh Shekawat. Allu Arjun, the main lead of the film, received a National Film Award for his performance in the first part.

The first part of Pushpa showcased power tussles set against the backdrop of red sandalwood smuggling which was directed by Sukumar.

The film was earlier scheduled to be released in August. However, in June, the makers locked December 6 as the new release date of ‘Pushpa 2’.
