However, there has been a lot of confusion regarding the languages the film will be available in. Initially, it was said to be released in all four South Indian languages, and there was no word about the Hindi version.
A day ahead of the release, Netflix announced that the Hindi version also will be released, they wrote: “Pushpa Bhau ne sun li aapki baat, ab Pushpa ka rule, Hindi mein bhi”

On the day of release, the platform announced that the film is not yet available in Kannada.
The action film released on 5 December, also set another benchmark by making the humongous collection faster than any other Indian film.
The Sukumar directorial was well received by the audience. Starring Allu Arjun, and Rashmika Mandanna, the film is the sequel to the 2021 hit Pushpa: The Rise.
The first part also became the highest-grossing movie of 2021 in India and marked the first time a Telugu actor (Allu Arjun) won the Best Actor award at the National Film Awards.
“Pushpa 2: The Rule is a definite improvement over the first one but needed a tighter edit particularly the elongated action sequences which don’t serve much purpose other than establishing Pushpa’s invincibility,” our review read.
