“Allu Arjun marks 20 years in the film industry; Pushpa teaser set to release on his birthday”

Allu Arjun, the celebrated Telugu actor, commemorated a significant milestone in his illustrious career on Tuesday, having completed 20 years in the film industry. He expressed his gratitude by sharing a heartfelt message on his Instagram account, expressing thanks to his fans and colleagues in the industry for their unwavering support. Arjun’s acting journey commenced with his debut in the Telugu romantic drama Gangotri, directed by K. Raghavendra Rao, in 2003.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s comment on Arjun’s post, “Fireworks going off soon,” elicited a flurry of responses from fans who yearned to see the two stars as a couple on the silver screen.

Meanwhile, the producers of Arjun’s latest film, Pushpa: The Rise, are preparing to launch the teaser of the film on April 8, coinciding with Arjun’s birthday. The film’s team recently wrapped up the shooting, with a significant portion of the action sequences filmed during a major schedule in Visakhapatnam.

According to sources, the producers have compiled a 3-minute teaser from the film’s action-packed scenes so far, with a focus on the face-off between Arjun’s character, a lorry driver-cum-sandalwood smuggler, and Fahadh Faasil, who played the main antagonist in the first instalment of the film franchise. The film also features Rashmika Mandanna, who essayed the role of Srivalli.

Pushpa’s first instalment, titled Pushpa: The Rule, was released in December 2021, and grossed over ₹300 crore worldwide. Its dubbed Hindi version alone grossed over ₹100 crore. With the teaser set to release on Arjun’s birthday, fans are eagerly anticipating the film’s release later this year.
