The highly anticipated film ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’, starring Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna, and Fahadh Faasil, hit theaters on December 5 and left a lasting impact on the box office. Grossing ₹ 1234.1 crore in India and ₹ 1742.1 crore worldwide, the movie’s success has fans eagerly awaiting the third installment. Now, the release date of ‘Pushpa 3: The Rampage’ has been revealed, and we’re excited to dive into the details.
According to the film’s producer, Ravishankar, ‘Pushpa 3: The Rampage’ is slated to release in 2028, three years from now. This delay is due to Allu Arjun’s prior commitments to complete his projects with director Atlee, followed by a film with Trivikram. Both of these endeavors are expected to take around two years to complete.
Pre-Production Delays for ‘Pushpa 3’
Director Sukumar, who helmed the first two ‘Pushpa’ films, is currently tied up with a project alongside Ram Charan, and will only shift his focus to ‘Pushpa 3’ after its completion. Meanwhile, Allu Arjun is collaborating with Trivikram on their fourth film together, having previously worked on ‘Julaai’, ‘SathyaMurthy’, and ‘Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo’. In a recent interview, ‘Pushpa’ dialogue writer Srikanth Vissa revealed that the third installment will be grander and better than its predecessor.
Bollywood Actor to Join ‘Pushpa 3’ Cast?
The upcoming film is expected to introduce new characters, and the makers are reportedly attempting to bring a prominent Bollywood star on board. While nothing is confirmed, Vijay Deverakonda’s involvement seems likely, given his 2021 social media post sharing the film’s name and a photo with Sukumar. Additionally, a teaser released prior to ‘Pushpa 2’ hinted that the character of Pushpa had gone missing and was hiding in the jungle, leaving fans with a cliffhanger. As the anticipation builds, one thing is certain – ‘Pushpa 3: The Rampage’ will be a cinematic event to look out for in 2028.
