Pushpa 2 generates a lot of buzz as one of the most anticipated pan-Indian flicks, schedule for release on August 15th. However, there is less interest about its release due to tough competition from other language films on the same date. In Hindi, Ajay Devgan‘s Singam Again, a sequel directed by Rohit Shetty, provides a challenge to Pushpa 2’s popularity in Hindi-speaking nations.
Similarly, Shiva Rajkumar‘s Bhairathi Ranagal, a prequel to the popular film Mufti, will be released on the same day and is likely to dominate the Kannada market. Unlike blockbusters like RRR and Baahubali 2, which had unprecedented domination upon release, Pushpa 2 will face direct competition from other language films on its opening day.
This multilingual dispute could have an influence on Pushpa 2, despite its huge expectation and sequel status. Pushpa 2 has a unique challenge in carving out a niche in the competitive Indian film market by releasing significant films in multiple languages at the same time. While Pushpa 2 has generated a lot of buzz, its success will be determined by its ability to distinguish out in the face of stiff competition from known regional films.
