Director Sukumar is taking his own time to bring Pushpa on to the sets. He wanted to start shooting by December last year but the things got delayed with various reasons. The lockdown pushed the shooting start date from March end to an unknown date. Allu Arjun declared that he is ready to get back into the groove and start shooting. The team of Pushpa also made some plans to shoot in the forests in and around Telangana. Sukumar did not like the options.
He wanted to go on and shoot in a forest area finally but then as the things started to relax a bit and as the governments are easing the restrictions, he wants to go and shoot in original planned locations at one go. He is planning to shoot at a speed that he never worked with and within one long schedule he wants to wrap up 70% of the film. For now, he still did not decide on the date and the film shoot could begin in December or January. Movie stars Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna in the lead roles. Mythri Movie Makers are producing the film.
