The excitement surrounding Allu Arjun’s highly anticipated film Pushpa 2: The Rule is palpable as the action drama gears up for its release on December 5, 2024. With advanced bookings already raking in an impressive ₹14.78 crore, the film is poised for a blockbuster opening.
Record-Breaking Advance Bookings
As of now, Pushpa 2 has garnered significant attention, especially in North America, where it is expected to surpass the ₹15 crore mark in advance sales.

Release Date
Pushpa 2: The Rule is set to hit theaters on December 5, 2024, with international premieres starting a day earlier on December 4.

- Karnataka: ₹20 crore
- Tamil Nadu: ₹12 crore
