The still of Allu Arjun in the new poster is from the Japan sequence, which was featured in the trailer but omitted from the theatrical version. Fans are eagerly anticipating an extension of those scenes, along with other significant additions in the 20 minutes of new content.

The timing of the reloaded version comes as the film is touted to face stiff competition in the Telugu states, with big Sankranthi releases, including Ram Charan’s Game Changer, Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Daaku Maharaj, and Venkatesh Daggubati’s Sankranthiki Vasthunnam.

The announcement follows a massive 30-day run at the box office, where the film, led by Allu Arjun, has set new records. With Rs 1,831 crore in worldwide gross and Rs 1,438 crore in India, Pushpa 2 has officially surpassed Baahubali 2: The Conclusion to become the highest-grossing Indian film ever.

Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 2 continues the gripping saga of Pushpa, a member of the sandalwood mafia, as he grapples with growing police pressure. The film's widespread appeal has been evident, with successful runs across multiple languages, including Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada.
