The upcoming film “Pushpa 2,” starring Allu Arjun, is buzzing nationwide. Directed by Sukumar, the film is almost ready to hit theaters, with a grand release scheduled for December 5th. The shooting is nearly complete, except for two songs and one scene, raising concerns among fans about whether the film will release on the announced date. Amid these developments, an unexpected twist in the film’s production has emerged: Thaman has been brought in to replace Devi Sri Prasad as the music director, which has been a hot topic of discussion.
Thaman Joins Pushpa 2 Team
It is well-known that star music director Devi Sri Prasad was scoring the music for “Pushpa 2” after his tracks for the first part created a nationwide sensation. Recently released songs from the film have already captured the youth’s attention. However, rumors are now circulating online that Devi Sri Prasad has been set aside and Thaman has taken over the responsibility for the film’s background music.
Dissatisfaction from Sukumar
Sukumar and Devi Sri Prasad have had a strong rapport, with Devi providing music for all of Sukumar’s past films, which featured hit albums. Sukumar had entrusted Devi Sri Prasad with the music responsibilities for “Pushpa 2” as well, and while he was satisfied with the songs, he was reportedly not happy with the background music. With just 29 days left until the film’s release, and Devi Sri having his hands full, Sukumar decided to bring in Thaman to handle the BGM. Discussions with Thaman have reportedly taken place, and he has already presented some background scores to Sukumar. An official announcement regarding this change is expected soon.
Why Thaman?
Music director S.S. Thaman is renowned not only for his compelling songs but also for his exceptional background scores. Recently, his BGMs have been making waves, with notable contributions to films like “Akhanda,” “Veera Simha Reddy,” “Vakeel Saab,” “Bhagavanth Kesari,” “Guntur Kaaram,” “Bro,” and “Skanda.” Thaman, already having worked with Allu Arjun in blockbuster films such as “Sarrainodu” and “Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo,” knows exactly what kind of musical elevations suit Allu Arjun’s films to make theaters erupt. Hence, there is a strong belief among fans that if Thaman provides the background music for “Pushpa 2,” it will be phenomenal.
Another Music Director in Consideration?
Alongside Thaman, another music director, Ajaneesh Loknath, known for his work on films like “Kantara” and “Mangalavaaram,” is also being considered for “Pushpa 2.” Rumors suggest that Thaman might handle the first part and Ajaneesh the second, indicating that up to three directors might work on the film. However, industry insiders strongly believe that Thaman will be the sole provider of the background music, although clarity will only emerge with an official announcement.
A Rare Feat for Pushpa 2
“Pushpa 2” marks a significant achievement as Allu Arjun, previously known primarily to the Telugu audience, garnered a global fan base following the success of “Pushpa” (2021). With the film achieving pan-India and overseas success, “Pushpa 2” has generated substantial hype among international audiences. Pre-sale bookings have recently opened overseas, and the first 15,000 tickets sold out in record time—a first for an Indian film in America. The “Pushpa” team has released a special poster to announce this milestone.
