Allu
Arjun's
Pushpa
is
undeniably
one
of
the
highly
awaited
films.
The
action-thriller
directed
by
Sukumar
recently
made
it
to
the
news
for
resuming
its
filming
after
months
of
COVID-19
break.
A
few
pictures
of
Allu
Arjun
from
the
sets
of
the
film
also
became
the
talk
of
the
town.
The
actor
as
Pushpa
Raj
looked
unrecognizable
in
the
pictures
that
went
viral
on
social
media.
Being
the
first
pan-India
project
of
Allu
Arjun,
the
makers
of
Pushpa
are
leaving
no
stone
unturned
to
experiment
with
the
film.
Though
it
was
earlier
reported
that
Tamil
actor
Vijay
Sethupathi
will
be
essaying
a
key
role
in
the
film,
the
actor
later
announced
that
he
is
no
more
a
part
of
the
Allu
Arjun-starrer
owing
to
date
issues.
Of
late,
there
have
also
been
speculations
that
R
Madhavan
has
replaced
Vijay
Sethupathi
in
the
film,
but
the
actor
himself
took
to
his
social
media
handle
to
rubbish
the
rumours,
calling
in
baseless.
Well
now,
we
hear
that
the
makers
are
eager
to
bring
a
Tamil
actor
for
the
project,
who
can
replace
Vijay
in
the
film.
It
is
said
that
the
team
is
now
in
talks
with
Kollywood
superstar
Chiyaan
Vikram
for
the
highly
anticipated
project.
Looks
like
the
makers
believe
Pushpa
will
be
able
to
garner
huge
attention
of
the
audience
with
his
inclusion,
given
the
fact
that
the
actor
has
earlier
collaborated
with
Bollywood
star
Aishwarya
Rai
for
Ravan,
and
is
gearing
up
to
yet
again
share
screen
space
with
her
and
legendary
actor
Amitabh
Bachchan
in
Mani
Ratnam's
Ponniyin
Selvan.
If
reports
are
to
be
believed,
Vikram
was
impressed
with
the
storyline
and
is
eager
to
work
with
the
Stylish
Star.
If
true,
Vikram
will
soon
sign
on
the
dotted
lines
and
a
confirmation
regarding
the
same
will
be
made
official
by
the
makers.
Interestingly,
Vikram's
inclusion
in
Pushpa
will
mark
his
11th
Telugu
project
after
20
years.
He
has
been
a
part
of
several
Tollywood
films
including
Bangaru
Kutumbam
(1994),
Adalla
Majaka
(1995),
Ooha
(1996),
Merupu
(1996),
9
Nelalu
(2000)
and
others.
His
last
project
in
Telugu
was
the
2001
film
Youth.
Coming
back
to
Pushpa,
the
film
backed
by
Mythri
Movie
Makers
has
Rashmika
Mandanna
as
the
leading
lady.
