The Telugu movies which were restricted only to Telugu states are now cutting across the borders. The makers are promoting the movies on the International level. Rajamouli’s Baahubali and RRR have done decent business in foreign countries. Sukumar and Allu Arjun’s Pushpa which was dubbed in the Russian language is doing good business.
Now, as per the latest sources, the director is planning to rope in a foreign actor for the villain’s role in his upcoming movie Pushpa 2. His name is Sajjad Delafrooz, an Iranian-born UAE-raised actor who did a lot of small roles in Hollywood projects. He appeared as a villain in Salman Khan’s Tiger Zinda Hai and Hotstar’s web series Special Ops.
After emerging as the kingpin of Red Sandalwood smuggling in part one, Allu Arjun would be meeting gangsters from across the world to trade the Red Sandalwood. There are also rumors that Vijay Setupathi will be seen in an important role, but, there’s no official confirmation of his role. The movie is expected to hit the sets early next year and will have the release by the end of the year.
