Sreeleela, famous for her dance moves, has gained popularity with films like Bhagavanth Kesari (2023) and Guntur Kaaram (2024). The fans are now excited to see Sreeleela showcase her dancing prowess alongside Allu Arjun, in the dance number “Kissik”, which will be choreographed by Ganesh Acharya.
The dance number from the first part— Pushpa 1: The Rise—”Oo Antava Mama” which featured Samantha still tops the charts.
While more details of the song are still under wraps, it will be a Devi Sri Prasad musical.
While Sukumar is known to collaborate with the ace music director Devi Sri Prasad for all his films, it is now being speculated that SS Thaman will join the film team to give a background score. However, the team has decided to retain DSP’s songs.
The speculations grew as Thaman while attending a recent concert of singer Karthik in Hyderabad candidly announced, “I have Pushpa 2 waiting.” The short clip has now gone viral. However, there has been no official announcement yet.
According to reports, it is rumoured that the director Sukumar and Allu Arjun are unsatisfied with the music composer Devi Sri Prasad’s background score.

According to reports, the film has already made a gross of ₹1,085 crore in pre-sales.
The first instalment, released in 2021, was a massive hit, breaking box office records and resonating with viewers across India and beyond.
Allu Arjun’s portrayal of the defiant Pushpa Raj became a fan favourite, leaving a lasting impact on pop culture with its memorable dialogues, music, and style.
Originally scheduled for Independence Day, 15 August, the release date of Pushpa: The Rule was postponed to December, creating some fan tension.
Pushpa: The Rise, dubbed into multiple Indian languages, 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.
