The makers of the highly anticipated Telugu film Pushpa: The Rise, starring Allu Arjun, released the trailer on Monday night. The trailer promises an adrenaline-packed ride with action sequences, punch dialogues and stunning visuals from the forests.
The multilingual action-thriller also features Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Faasil. The film chronicles the red sanders heist in the hills of Andhra and depicts the convoluted nexus that unfurls in the course of the narrative. The trailer is raw and quickly gives the viewer an overview of the different forces involved in what appears to be a turf war. The trailer closes with a quick glimpse of Fahadh, who marks his Telugu debut with this film. Fahadh, known for starring in acclaimed movies like Malik, Joji, Kumbalangi Nights and Super Deluxe, plays the antagonist in the film opposite Arjun.
The first part of the two-part drama will hit the screens on December 17. Written and directed by Sukumar of Arya fame, the film will be released in Tamil, Hindi, Kannada and Malayalam also.
The makers had earlier announced that Pushpa: The Rise would have a theatrical release on August 13 with the second part bowing out in 2022.
However, the first part was postponed due to the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic.
