Arjun currently awaits the release of his upcoming Telugu film Pushpa, which will be simultaneously released in Tamil, Hindi, Kannada and Malayalam. The project, which is tipped to be a forest-based thriller, will mark his maiden pan-Indian project.

Pushpa will be based on red sandalwood smuggling, and it marks the third-time collaboration of Arjun and filmmaker Sukumar. It also stars Rashmika Mandanna in the lead role.

In December last year, the shoot of Pushpa was suspended after six crew members tested positive while shooting in a specially erected set in Visakhapatnam. The film’s director Sukumar, Arjun and the cinematographer tested negative when they got themselves tested for the coronavirus.

The makers had recently revealed that they are spending a whopping 6 crore for a chase sequence in Pushpa which will be shot under the supervision of a few international stuntmen. The film, which has music by Devi Sri Prasad, will release worldwide on August 13.
