Allu
Arjun
in
Pushpa:
The
Rule.
That’s
the
question
on
moviegoers’
minds.
Trade
circles
feel
Allu
Arjun’s
Pushpa:
The
Rule
will
go
past
the
first
day
numbers
of
Shah
Rukh
Khan’s
Jawan
when
it
releases
on
Thursday,
December
5.
Both
films
are
the
biggest
of
their
respective
years
of
release.
Jawan
was
the
hottest
film
of
2023
while
Pushpa
2
is
the
biggest
of
2024.
Shah
Rukh
led
the
show
after
delivering
an
all-time
blockbuster
in
Pathaan.
On
the
other
hand,
Pushpa:
The
Rise
was
a
big
hit
in
2021
but
the
last
few
years
have
given
the
brand
a
cult
status
which
makes
Pushpa
2
super
strong.
Both
are
male-driven,
testosterone-filled
hardcore
action
dramas
with
one
man
fighting
against
all
odds.
But
while
Jawan
catered
primarily
to
the
class
audiences
with
the
mass
joining
in
as
well,
it’s
the
other
way
round
for
Pushpa
2.
This
also
means
that
while
footfalls
for
Pushpa
2
could
be
bigger,
since
it
primarily
caters
to
the
interiors,
the
lower
ticket
prices
will
neutralise
the
first
day
numbers.
Shah
Rukh
Khan
in
Jawan.
Shah
Rukh
Khan,
the
biggest
superstar
of
our
times,
ensured
that
audiences
stepped
in
for
him.
On
the
other
hand,
there
is
a
huge
gentry
out
there
which
will
ensure
that
Allu
Arjun
gets
a
rousing
welcome.
On
December
5
when
it
releases,
Pushpa
2
will
aim
to
surpass
the
collections
of
Jawan
in
the
Hindi
version.
The
Shah
Rukh
Khan
starrer
had
collected
Rs
66
crore
(Rs
660
million)
in
Hindi
and
that’s
the
target
Pushpa
2
has
set
for
itself.
Of
course,
when
it
comes
to
all
language
numbers,
Pushpa
2
will
probably
cross
the
Rs
125
crore
(Rs
1.25
billion)
mark.
All
said
and
done,
this
Allu
Arjun
starrer
is
set
for
a
blockbuster
beginning.
Note:
All
collections

per
various
