Hyderabad, India – Allu Arjun’s highly anticipated film, Pushpa 2: The Rule, continues to make headlines with its impressive pre-release deals. The latest reports suggest that the USA distribution rights for the film have been valued at a staggering $15 million, a record-breaking figure for a Telugu film. However, this deal is not yet finalized, as it comes with a refundable clause.
Given the high breakeven point of $15 million, there are concerns about whether Pushpa 2 can generate enough revenue solely from its Telugu version. The refundable clause means that if the film fails to meet its breakeven point, the producers will have to return the amount to the buyer. However, there is optimism surrounding the Hindi version of the film, which could significantly boost its performance in North America.
If the Hindi version of Pushpa 2 performs well, it could set unprecedented records for Telugu films in the USA. However, this depends on the film’s ability to attract a substantial Hindi audience, which will largely depend on the quality of the teaser and trailer, which are currently being edited by director Sukumar.
As the release date of December 6, 2024, approaches, all eyes are on Pushpa 2 to see how it will perform both domestically and internationally. With Allu Arjun reprising his iconic role as Pushparaj, expectations are high for the sequel to surpass the success of its predecessor.
