Plot:
Pushpa Raj(Allu Arjun) becomes huge as syndicate head. Bhagawant Singh Shekhawat(Fahadh Faasil) plots to arrest him but fails. Pushpa tries to get a photograph from CM with the help of MP Siddappa(Rao Ramesh). But CM rejects and Pushpa decides to change CM and put Siddappa in his place.
He decides to deal directly with the biggest buyer for Rs.5000 crores. Bhagawant Singh starts to attack the syndicate members and kills one. Now, Pushpa is forced to apologise to Bhagawanth. While he decides to apologize upon Srivalli(Rashmika Mandanna)'s insistence but he reacts in his own way. What did he do? What did Syndicate decide after that? What did Shekhawat decide? Watch the movie for answers.
Analysis:
Allu Arjun did give his career best performance once again. This time, he got an opportunity to explore a different angle in his performance and he did give his best. Jathara episode and his performance will be remembered for a long time.
Rashmika Mandanna seems to have been asked to overreact way bit more. She annoys at times. Sreeleela song is shot well but doesn't have Oo antava impact. Rao Ramesh is good and Jagapathi Babu did his best. Fahadh Faasil is one of the best performers and he is able to handle psychotic character very well with comedy and terrifying screen presence.
The problem lies in second half writing where after Jathara episode, the movie starts to drag for part-3. Sukumar could have easily avoided such ambition and only add it aa a new challenge. But he drags the same sequence till climax with same output.
The cinematography, grand production values, background score does give the movie the massive scale it desires. Cat and mouse game between Fahadh and Allu Arjun really keeps us interested. Had Sukumar did not try to force Part-3 and added a little bit more spicyness to confrontational scenes, movie would have been even better.
In Conclusion:
Allu Arjun's one man show makes it a one-time watch.
Rating: 2.75/5
