Pushpa 2: The Rule movie review

Sukumar is a master in mass entertainers and in ‘‘Pushpa 2 : The Rule’ at certain times he surpasses your wildest imagination to give a hard core mass actioner which is bound to rule at the box office.

The entry of icon star Allu Arjun will make the fans whistle continuously, this time Pushpa Raj is more intense, flamboyant and has a reputation.

‘Pushpa 2 : The Rule’  was not at all an easy second installment to make, Sukumar who is aware of Allu Arjun’s strength makes the maximum use of his talents and the audience are in for surprises for sure.

The action is mind-blowing, the narrative is thoroughly engaging with moments that will make the galley the core audience cheering with claps and whistle.

The poise, the body language, the attitude, the get up of Allu Arjun as Pushpa Raj is a blast. The battle of supremacy between Allu Arjun and Fahadh Faasil, the moments between Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandana, the dance, the colour, the energy, the rooted desi connection everything is done with conviction.

The perfect opening act, the fabulous interval point and the sensational climax, Sukumar does what was required marvelously in ‘Pushpa 2 : The Rule’ .

Performance

Allu Arjun is the super hero of the masses; the actor displays pure excellence in his portrayal and perhaps gives his best till date. Allu Arjun is the top contender for National Award dobara with ‘Pushpa 2 : The Rule’ .

Fahadh Faasil is class apart as SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat, what acting what energy.

Rashmika Mandanna is outstanding as Srivalli, her chemistry with Allu Arjun is raw and filled with feelings.

And last but not the least, Shreyas Talpade gives his voice for the Hindi version of ‘Pushpa 2 : The Rule’  and the dialogues are already becoming popular day by day. Shreyas with that Marathi tang gives the character extra edge, more root and more identification. Superb job.

Technicalities

Amazing production values. Cinematography by Miroslaw Kuba Brozek is simply outstanding. Music by Devi Sri Prasad is peppy and romantic, ‘Angaroon’ is the pick of the lot for me.

Flaws

The proceedings take a slight dip and at times things happen to just maintain the flow. Yes, the movie is marred by predictability. Not for the haters of such mass entertainers and those who are looking for logic, sense in these sensibilities then stay away.
