Popular
actress
and
politician
Roja
will
likely
be
seen
playing
the
role
of
an
antagonist
in
the
Allu
Arjun-starrer,
Pushpa.
A
report
published
in
a
leading
portal
suggests
that
the
MLA
of
Nagari
Constituency
for
YSRCP
in
Andhra
Pradesh,
Roja
is
said
to
have
accepted
the
offer
of
the
makers.
If
reports
are
to
be
believed,
after
talking
to
director
Sukumar
and
getting
a
full
narration
from
him,
Roja
has
given
her
nod
to
the
film,
and
fans
are
waiting
for
the
official
confirmation.
As
per
the
report,
Roja
liked
her
role
and
thought
it
would
be
a
great
addition
to
her
filmy
career.
Apart
from
Roja,
Bobby
Simha
and
Suniel
Shetty
have
also
been
approached
to
play
the
antagonists
in
Pushpa.
But
the
official
confirmation
about
the
same
is
yet
to
come.
Meanwhile,
the
shooting
of
Pushpa
is
expected
to
kick
start
from
June
15,
in
Andhra
Pradesh's
forest.
Earlier,
the
team
had
thought
of
shooting
in
Thailand
and
Kerala,
but
now,
due
to
the
Novel
Coronavirus
outbreak,
they
are
thinking
about
filming
in
the
Telugu
states
only.
Pushpa
also
stars
Rashmika
Mandanna
in
the
female
lead
while
Dhananjay
playing
a
supporting
role.
For
those
who
are
unversed,
Kannada
actor
Dhananjay
has
reportedly
replaced
Vijay
Sethupathi,
who
was
supposed
to
play
the
role.
Pushpa
is
considered
as
one
of
the
most
ambitious
projects
of
Allu
Arjun's
career.
After
delivering
a
blockbuster
Ala
Vaikunthapurramuloo,
the
Stylish
Star
is
now
all
set
to
bring
action-drama
to
the
big
screen.
Notably,
Pushpa
is
going
to
be
the
first
pan-India
release
of
Allu
Arjun's
career,
as
the
film
will
be
releasing
in
Telugu,
Tamil,
Kannada,
Malayalam
and
Hindi.
