Mumbai: The fans are eagerly waiting for the sequel to the superhit “Pushpa: The Rise” which stars Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna. The South sensation Samantha Ruth Prabhu who featured in ‘ Oo Antava’ of movie’s part one grabbed eyeballs with her moves in the dance number.
Speculations are rife that Samantha has rejected an offer from the makers in the ‘Pushpa: The Rule’. It is reported that ‘Pushpa’ director Sukumar approached the actress for another dance number in the second instalment recently but she has reportedly rejected the offer.

But, Allu Arjun sat down and convinced me. Without his encouragement, I would not have accepted to do ‘Oo Antava’. Now that this song has become viral all over the country, I have to thank Allu Arjun,” Samantha admitted after her dance moves swayed India.
She had reportedly charged Rs 5 crore for the three-minute-long song and it is reported that she might take the whopping amount of money if she agrees to the dance number in the second instalment of the movie.
On the work front, Samantha will also be seen next in an upcoming romantic film ‘Khusi’ opposite actor Vijay Deverakonda.
