Performance: Allu Arjun’s performance as Pushpa in the role of a wicked smuggler, is good in this film and his Chittoor dialect is so perfect. The actor gate up, body language, way of dialogue delivery, dancing style, action, dialogue dictations are highlighted. Character of Fahadh Faasil as Shikawat sir is so fiery and scary. Rashmika Mandanna looks cute. She matches equal steps in the song with Bunny and her chemistry with him is superb. There is not much for Anasuya Bharadwaj in the first part. Sunil performs well. Rest of the cast of Pushpa perform accordingly.
Technical: The story of Pushpa: The Rise is predictable but Sukumar became successful to execute Pushpa: The Rise in engaging manner. He has written Allu Arjun’ character quite well. Screenplay is good and the dialogues are highlighted. Songs are eye-catching and foot-tapping. Devi Sri Prasad does good job with its background score that elevates the film well. Samantha’ special song is good. Action sequences are well choreographed. Production values are rich. Cinematography is breathtaking.
