Sunil was recently shooting for Ajith Kumar's Good Bad Ugly in Spain when he was surprised to see Pakistanis recognise him from the Pushpa films.

The team of Pushpa 2: The Rule recently held a success meet in Hyderabad, which was attended by director Sukumar, lead actor Allu Arjun and the rest of the team. Sunil, who plays Mangalam Seenu in Pushpa: The Rise and Pushpa 2: The Rule recollected how he was once recognised by Pakistanis in Spain due to the films.

Sunil on getting recognised by Pakistanis

Sunil plays Mangalam Seenu in Sukumar's Pushpa films.

“We were looking for restaurants that were still open nearby when we came across a kebab point. It was closed, but the people who owned it were smoking outside; we assumed they were Indians. One of the men stared at me and said he recognised me from the Pushpa interval block. He even rewatched the scene on his phone to be sure; I was surprised. The owners were Pakistani and cooked for us despite the restaurant being closed. This film has such a reach that I am recognised by Pushpa everywhere I go,” said Sunil.
