‘Pushpa 2’ Item Song Buzz: Sreeleela or Shraddha Kapoor to Replace Samantha? 🔥 Here’s What We Know!

Allu Arjun returns as the lead in the pan-Indian film directed by Sukumar, titled ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule,’ which is the sequel to the blockbuster ‘Pushpa: The Rise.’ The item song from the previous film was a massive hit, mesmerizing audiences across India with Samantha’s performance in ‘Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava,’ and now, there’s a high expectation for the upcoming sequel’s item number. However, who will star in the next item song remains a mystery.

Initially, Tripti Dimri was considered for the item song in ‘Pushpa 2,’ but reports suggest that the film crew has decided against it after being dissatisfied with the rehearsal outcomes. Now, there’s talk of considering two younger actresses from Tollywood and Bollywood to fill the spot.

‘Pushpa’ generated immense buzz nationally, with its pre-release business surpassing ₹1000 crores. The makers are carefully managing every aspect to ensure that ‘Pushpa 2’ surpasses the feel and success of Part 1. Notably, the songs from the first part were huge hits, particularly the item song ‘Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava’ performed by Samantha and Bunny, which the director Sukumar plans to top in this sequel.

Item Song featuring Sreeleela

There’s a buzz that Sreeleela has been approached to dance alongside Bunny in the item song for ‘Pushpa 2.’ Sreeleela’s popularity among the youth skyrocketed after her item song with superstar Mahesh Babu in ‘Guntur Kaaram.’ Her energetic performance in the ‘Aa Kurchi Madatapetti’ song from the movie was widely appreciated for its dance and glamour, prompting filmmakers to make serious efforts to include her in ‘Pushpa 2,’ with both Sukumar and Bunny reportedly green-lighting her participation.

Romance with Shraddha Kapoor

Another name being considered for the item song is Bollywood’s beauty star Shraddha Kapoor, whose recent movie ‘Stree-2‘ was a big hit. Given her appeal, including her in the song might enhance the nationwide buzz around ‘Pushpa.’ Talks have already taken place with her, and if she agrees, it could elevate the film’s pan-Indian appeal. A formal announcement regarding the participating actress is expected soon, as the item song shoot is scheduled for November.

Bunny paired with two heroines

Rashmika Mandanna is known to be the leading lady in ‘Pushpa 2,’ but there’s news that she might also join the item song. Even though Rashmika was part of the first part, she did not appear in the item song which was exclusively led by Bunny and Samantha. With the inclusion of two heroines in the sequel’s item number, expectations among movie lovers are soaring to see how Bunny will perform alongside them.

November: The month of Pushpa mania

Allu Arjun has declared November as the month of ‘Pushpa.’ With just a month left until the movie’s release, promotions are kicking off. A nationwide tour is hinted, with full-scale promotions across all languages set to begin by mid-November. The entire movie crew is expected to participate in these promotions.

Final phase of ‘Pushpa 2’ shooting

The shooting for ‘Pushpa 2’ is nearly complete, except for the item song. The climax scene involving Allu Arjun and villain Fahadh Faasil was recently filmed at Ramoji Film City. The climax will be crucial, much like in the first part, and will also link to the potential third part of the series.
