There have been rumors about discord between the Allu and Mega families recently, exacerbated during the AP elections when Bunny supported the YSRCP candidate against Pawan. Since then, both Allu and Mega fans have been clashing on social media. This feud seemed to deepen when Pawan Kalyan made negative comments about ‘Pushpa,’ and Bunny retorted, “I’ll come if I feel like it.” However, the situation seems to be settling with ‘Pushpa 2’ as opportunities are arising for Pawan and Bunny to appear together on the same stage.
Pawan at Pushpa 2 Event?
Directed by Sukumar, ‘Pushpa 2,’ starring Allu Arjun, has been creating a buzz nationally. The movie is set to release pan-India on December 5. In light of this, the Pushpa team is planning a grand pre-release event in the last week of November in AP, with plans to invite Pawan Kalyan as the chief guest. Reports suggest that Allu Arjun will soon meet with Pawan Kalyan, who is likely to accept the invitation. If this happens, it would be a significant move towards mending the rift between the Allu and Mega fans, as seen on social media. This appearance could also dispel ongoing rumors of discord within the family.
Is there a Master Plan?
Inviting Pawan to the ‘Pushpa 2’ pre-release event seems to be a strategic move, given the recent tension between Allu Arjun and the Mega fans. There have been threats from the Mega fans on social media to boycott ‘Pushpa 2.’ The Pushpa team is reportedly concerned that if these threats continue, it could significantly impact the movie’s collections. By inviting Pawan as a guest, the filmmakers hope to mitigate the negative atmosphere and garner the usual support from Mega fans for ‘Pushpa 2.’
Anasuya Raises Expectations
Actress and TV anchor Anasuya, who plays a pivotal role in ‘Pushpa 2,’ recently heightened the hype around the movie. During a guest appearance on the Bigg Boss show, host Nagarjuna asked her about the movie. Anasuya responded that ‘Pushpa 2’ will have a climactic feel every ten minutes, suggesting that while ‘Pushpa’ was just an introduction, the real story unfolds in ‘Pushpa 2.’ This statement has set high expectations for the narrative and twists in the upcoming film.
Pushpa 3 Confirmed
Following ‘Pushpa 2,’ there has been strong buzz about a third part. Both hero Allu Arjun and director Sukumar have hinted at ‘Pushpa 3.’ Producer Ravi Shankar recently confirmed at a press meet that ‘Pushpa 3’ is definitely happening, thanks to a solid lead they have developed. This news has excited Bunny’s fans immensely, though no definitive comments have been made about the timing of ‘Pushpa 3.’
