The movie’s song “Pushpa – Jhukega Nahi Saala” was choreographed by Bollywood dancer Ganesh Acharya.

The song “Pushpa – Jhukega Nahi Saala” from the film “Pushpa: The Rise” was choreographed by Bollywood dancer Ganesh Acharya, who revealed how he did it. He added that people crossing the street provided the song’s inspiration.

The title character in the Telugu action drama “Pushpa: The Rise” is played by Allu Arjun. In supporting parts are Jagadeesh Prathap Bandari, Sunil, Raj Tirandasu, Rao Ramesh, Dhananjaya, Anasuya Bharadwaj, and Ajay Ghosh. It also stars Fahadh Faasil (making his Telugu debut) and Rashmika Mandanna. The protagonist of the tale is a laborer named Pushpa Raj, who traffics red sandalwood in the Andhra Pradesh region of Chittoor’s Seshachalam Hills.

Ganesh Acharya spoke about how he choreographed the dance sequence: “Whenever I am traveling by car and see people walking by or doing something on the side, I observe them and draw inspiration from them. So, I did notice that there were some people standing on the side who looked a little rugged, and one person was playing with his beard.”

With “ABCD: Any Body Can Dance,” Ganesh Acharya made his film debut. He also received praise for the choreography of the song “Malhaari” from “Bajirao Mastani.” He portrayed the main character in the movie “Dehati Disco.”

Consequently, I informed the director that the movement was excellent and striking. He asked me what I meant, and I said that we could use those movements as inspiration for the opening song of the movie we were making,” he continued.
Along with famous makeup artist Mickey Contractor, hairstylist Hakim Aalim, photographer Dabboo Ratnani, fashion and costume designer Neeta Lulla, and action director Allan Amin, Ganesh Acharya made an appearance on “The Kapil Sharma Show.”
