MUMBAI, India — 5 January, 2022: Prime Video, one of
India’s most loved entertainment destinations, has a treat in store for
its viewers this new year, with the exclusive streaming premiere of the
action thriller Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1, starring Allu Arjun in the
titular role. Written and directed by Sukumar and produced by Mythri
Movie Makers and Muttamsetty Media, the Telugu action drama also stars
Rashmika Mandanna and marks the debut of the noted Malayalam and Tamil
actor, Fahadh Faasil in Telugu cinema. The movie will be premiering on
Prime Video on 7 January. The film will also be available in Tamil,
Malayalam and Kannada.
Pushpa: The Rise—Part 1 takes the viewers on a
galvanizing, intensely wild, hair-raising ride deep into the
Seshachalam forests situated in Andhra Pradesh. Here, lorry driver
Pushpa Raj—portrayed by Allu Arjun—is deeply involved in the smuggling
of red sandalwood trees. The movie chronicles the fight of good against
evil as the police crack down on the smuggling empire that is rampant in
these parts. The fast-paced, powerful, and thought-provoking narrative
pulls the viewers into a vortex where there is no right or wrong, and
there are no bad men—only heroes in different hues of gray. The movie
garnered rave reviews from fans and the film industry alike, and the
first day of its release across the country saw packed houses, with Allu
Arjun and Fahadh Faasil fans thronging cinema houses.
“We are
excited to give our viewers a thrilling start to the new year, with the
worldwide streaming premiere of the action-packed entertainer Pushpa:
The Rise- Part 1 on Prime Video,” said Manish Menghani, head of content
licensing, Prime Video, India. “An exciting new addition to our vast
repertoire of local language content, this fast-paced movie is bound to
keep our customers captivated from start to end. Featuring an all-star
cast - Allu Arjun, Fahadh Faasil, and Rashmika Mandanna, the film has
won the hearts of audiences with their phenomenal performances. We are
delighted to collaborate with Mythri Movie Makers and Muttamsetty Media
and bring this larger-than-life action thriller to our viewers across
the globe.”
Writer and director Sukumar said: “Firstly, I am deeply
grateful to the fans and audiences for their love and appreciation, and
making this movie a hit at the box office. This is a story set in the
heartland of India. The idea of taking the viewers on a journey into the
cutthroat world of red sandalwood smuggling operations had been with me
for some time now. I believe that viewers will appreciate the fact that
the movie moves away from the absolutes of good and evil, and delivers a
roller-coaster ride of action and drama. The compelling story and the
fantastic performances by the talented cast will make it a must-watch
immersive experience for viewers across the world.”
Talking about
his role in the movie, Allu Arjun shared: “The moment I read the script,
it instantly felt right to me. The story of an underdog rising up the
ranks may sound run-of-the-mill, but the way his journey has been
rendered in the movie, the multiple layers and nuances added to this
character are so unique and unlike any other I have done so far in my
career. I am honoured to be part of this project and absolutely thrilled
that the film will reach audiences worldwide with its release on Prime
Video.”
“All the months of hard work and training have paid off when I
see the audience praising the movie so highly,” said Rashmika Mandanna.
“Working with stellar actors like Allu Arjun and Fahadh Faasil has been
one of the key highlights for me. The unique storyline and powerful
narrative, as well as the multifaceted character sketches, reflect the
immense efforts put in by the creators in bringing this movie to life.”
On
his first stint in Telugu cinema, Fahadh Faasil said: “Pushpa: The
Rise—Part 1 has proved to be a fantastic debut for me in the Telugu film
industry. From the way my character has been shaped—the looks,
dialogues, and action sequences—each and every element has been
intricately woven into the storyline. I absolutely loved preparing for
such a distinctive role. And with Prime Video launching this movie on
its service, I am super excited to bring my fans across the world a
different shade of my acting for them to enjoy.”
