Last
week,
we
had
told
you
that
the
makers
of
Allu
Arjun's
next
will
be
announcing
the
title
and
revealing
the
first
look
poster
of
their
film
on
the
actor's
birthday,
which
happens
to
be
on
April
8.
While
we
can't
wait
for
the
official
announcement,
reports
are
already
doing
the
rounds
that
Allu
Arjun's
film,
co-starring
Rashmika
Mandanna,
has
been
titled
Pushpa.
According
to
a
report
in
cinejosh.com,
Allu
Arjun's
character
in
the
film
is
named
Pushpak
Narayan
and
he
is
fondly
called
Pushpa
by
his
loved
ones.
Because
of
this
very
reason,
the
movie
has
also
been
titled
Pushpa.
Yes,
we
know
it's
not
a
very
appealing
title
but
it
totally
makes
sense,
right?
Especially,
if
the
film
majorly
revolves
around
the
male
lead
character.
Initially,
it
was
being
said
that
Allu
Arjun
and
Rashmika
starrer
was
titled
Seshachalam.
However,
the
makers
soon
clarified
and
revealed
that
they
haven't
finalized
any
name
for
their
film
yet.
Also,
superstar
Mahesh
Babu
was
supposed
to
do
the
film
originally,
but
the
actor
backed
off
from
the
project
due
to
creative
differences
with
the
makers.
And
that's
how
the
Vedam
actor
landed
the
offer.
Touted
to
be
a
full-blown
action-entertainer,
Pushpa
is
being
helmed
by
Sukumar
and
bankrolled
by
Mythri
Movie
Makers.
Since
the
entire
country
is
currently
under
lockdown,
the
shooting
of
the
movie
will
only
begin
once
the
Corona
situation
subsides.
Set
in
the
backdrop
of
Seshachalam
forest,
Sukumar's
directorial
venture
is
about
a
lorry
driver
who
smuggles
red
sanders.
Apart
from
Allu
Arjun
and
Rashmika,
AA20
also
features
Vijay
Sethupathi,
Prakash
Raj
and
Jagapati
Babu
in
important
roles.
