Allu Arjun on pan-India success of Telugu films
“I’d like to thank the audiences from the other languages. It could be Tamil, it could be Malayalam, it could be Kannada, it could be the North Indian audience and also from other countries. Thank you so much for watching Telugu films. Thank you so much, you made us all so proud. Today, we have become one of the big markets, not because of our regional market, it is because of you. You made us big,” said Arjun.
The Telugu star was speaking at the announcement date event of his upcoming film Puspa, which has been scheduled to release on August 13. The film pairs Arjun with Rashmika Mandanna for the first time, and sees Arjun team up with director Sukumar for the third time. They earlier worked together in Arya and Arya 2. Based on true events, Pushpa revolves around the red sanders heist in the hills of Andhra Pradesh.
“Having a cast of stars such as Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Faasil inspired us to make the reveal of the first glimpse of the movie a grand spectacle,” said producers Naveen Yerneni and Y Ravi Shankar.
