He held a sword in his hand, resting threateningly on his shoulder. Allu looked into the camera, sporting a deadly expression. His caption stated, “#Pushpa2TheRule in cinemas from December 6th, 2024.”

Later, it was clarified that Jio Studios had now moved its Singham Again release to Diwali, and announced that its horror comedy Stree 2 would release on August 15 instead.
