Allu
Arjun's
Pushpa
is
faring
well
at
the
box
office.
Not
just
Telugu,
but
its
Hindi
version
too
has
been
well
received
by
the
audiences.
With
its
theatrical
run
worldwide,
the
film
has
grossed
Rs
254
crore,
while
the
share
is
Rs
142.01
crore.
Speaking
about
its
collection
hunt
in
Andhra
Pradesh
and
Telangana,
the
film
acquired
a
collection
between
Rs
30-60
lakh
on
day
16,
Saturday.
The
total
collection
of
the
film
now
stands
at
Rs
79.72
crore
(Telugu
region).
Despite
restrictions
imposed
at
places
and
cinema
halls
operating
with
only
50%
of
seating
capacity,
nothing
much
seems
to
have
impacted
the
rural
entertainer.
With
Sunday
still
remaining
and
no
major
clash,
the
film
collection
is
expected
to
increase.
Notably,
the
postponement
of
RRR
and
other
releases
might
now
help
Pushpa
grow
further.
Talking
about
the
film's
success
one
of
the
producers
of
Pushpa,
Naveen
Yerneni
during
his
interaction
with
the
Times
of
India
said
he
is
confident
that
his
team
will
make
a
hattrick
with
the
film's
sequel.
He
was
quoted
as
saying,
"This
is
our
first
association
with
Allu
Arjun
and
we're
delighted
to
have
scored
a
blockbuster.
This
is
our
second
blockbuster
film
with
Sukumar
after
Rangasthalam
and
we're
confident
that
we'll
make
it
a
hattrick
with
Puhpa:
The
Rise."
On
the
other
hand,
another
producer
of
the
film,
Ravi
Shankar
shared
that
it
was
heartening
to
see
the
film
do
well
in
other
states
and
overseas.
Directed
by
Sukumar,
Pushpa
has

Mandanna,
Sunil,
Fahadh
Faasil,
Prakash

and

key
roles.
