Pushpa 2: The Rule - Review

Release Date: December 5, 2024

Rating: 4.2/5�

Allu Arjun returns as Pushpa in this intense sequel directed by Sukumar. The story follows Pushpa’s rise as a smuggler, his rivalry with cop SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat (Fahadh Faasil), and his plan to make MP Siddhappa (Rao Ramesh) the CM.

Plus Points:

• Allu Arjun's performance is exceptional, delivering both emotional depth and action-packed moments.
• Fahadh Faasil adds intensity to his role as the obsessive cop.
• The action sequences and cinematography are gripping, especially in the Jathara sequence and climax.
• Devi Sri Prasad's music enhances the film’s impact.

Minus Points:

• The story lacks depth, especially in the first half.
• Songs are less impactful compared to the first film.
• The cliffhanger doesn’t build strong anticipation for Pushpa 3.

Verdict:

Pushpa 2 delivers intense performances and thrilling action but falls short in storyline and music. It is worth watching for action fans.
