Allu
Arjun's
most
awaited
film
Pushpa
has
become
the
latest
talk
of
the
town.
If
the
rumours
on
social
media
are
to
be
believed,
the
film's
budget
has
increased
by
Rs
40
crore,
which
has
now
left
the
makers
worried.
Reportedly
the
initial
budget
of
the
film
was
around
Rs
170
crore.
Though
the
reason
behind
the
rise
is
not
known,
reports
suggest
that
the
increase
in
working
days
and
the
delay
caused
by
the
pandemic
might
have
pushed
the
team
into
this
problematic
situation.
On
the
other
hand,
the
film's
Hindi
release
has
triggered
a
new
headache
for
the
makers.
It
is
said
that
a
few
distributors
had
approached
the
makers,
however,
the
team
is
yet
to
decide
and
sign
on
the
dotted
lines.
If
the
latest
grapevine
is
anything
to
go
by,
Allu
Arjun
is
planning
to
promote
the
film
(especially
the
Hindi
version)
in
full
swing
and
has
even
hired
top
agencies
to
promote
Pushpa.
Well,
with
the
promotional
activities
still
pending
and
budget
soaring,
it
is
evident
that
the
makers
will
have
to
spend
a
fortune
for
the
film
before
its
release
hoping
that
it
performs
well
in
the
theatres
so
as
to
recover
the
investments
made.
Pushpa
will
be
released
in
two
parts,
and
the
first
one
has
been
titled
Pushpa:
The
Rise.
Starring
Rashmika
Mandanna,

Faasil,

and

the

of
the
