Allu Arjun‘s ‘Pushpa’ is having a dream run at the box office. Not only is the original Telugu version doing extremely well in its home states, but the Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada and Hindi versions are also going great guns across the rest of the country. Pushpa: The Rise has emerged as a bona fide pan India hit despite facing tough competition from the Spider-Man: No Way Home juggernaut. Along the way, Pushpa: The Rise has shattered numerous long-standing box office records in the pan India film industry.
The film has received praise and adulation from all quarters, for its premise, music, Sukumar‘s direction, and most of all, for Allu Arjun’s power-packed performance. Not just theatres, Pushpa is a hot topic for digital viewers too. Audiences across the country are keen to know when and where Pushpa will premiere on OTT.
We at Binged have got you credible and confirmed information on the OTT release of Pushpa: The Rise. Streaming giant Prime Video has bagged the post-theatrical streaming rights for Pushpa. So the film will premiere on Prime Video soon. The release date for Pushpa on Prime Video is confirmed to be 7th January, exactly 21 days after its theatrical release.
Most readers will wonder why Pushpa: The Rise will release so soon on OTT when it is doing such great business at the theatres. In some circuits, the film has raked in better box office collections in its third week than even its first week of release. Well, the reason is that exclusive theatrical windows are decided at the time when the streaming rights of a movie are sold. The makers of Pushpa had no inkling before its release that the film would do so well at the box office. Spooked by the poor by numbers of certain Hindi releases, as well as the threat posed by Spider-Man No Way Home, the producers of Pushpa settled for an exclusive 3-week theatrical window and a lucrative OTT release on Prime Video after that.
So here it is. Pushpa: The Rise will release on Prime Video this Friday, 7th January. Pushpa is a crime and action drama, set in the backdrop of the world of illegal Sandalwood smuggling in the Seshachallam Hills of Andhra Pradesh. It has been written and directed by Sukumar. Rashmika Mandanna plays the female lead opposite Allu Arjun. Fahadh Faasil plays the primary antagonist in the film.
