Directed by Sukumar, 'Pushpa 2: The Rule' also stars Rashmika Mandanna, who will be seen reprising her role of Srivalli. The first installment 'Pushpa: The Rise' was released in 2021 and was loved by fans across India.

While ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ is fictional story, and is a sequel to the 2021 box-office juggernaut ‘Pushpa: The Rise’, ‘Chhaava’ is a period film.
