Is Pushpa 2 Director Sukumar Quitting Films? Fans Left in Shock!

Tollywood director Sukumar, famous for blockbusters like Pushpa: The Rule, recently shocked fans with a bold statement. During an event in Hyderabad, Sukumar was asked what he would leave behind if given the choice. Without hesitation, he replied, “Cinema.” This unexpected response left everyone, including actor Ram Charan, stunned. Sitting beside Sukumar, Charan immediately grabbed the mic and reassured fans, saying, “No, no, it won’t be happening,” lightening the mood.

Sukumar’s comment has since gone viral on social media. Fans are debating whether he was serious or joking. Despite the speculation, Sukumar remains professionally active, with major projects like Pushpa 3: The Rampage starring Allu Arjun and RC 17 with Ram Charan in the pipeline.

Pushpa 2’s Legal Trouble Adds to the Drama

The timing of Sukumar’s comment adds to the ongoing turmoil surrounding Pushpa 2. The film, which released on December 5 and grossed over Rs. 1,500 crore, faced unexpected challenges. At its premiere, lead actor Allu Arjun greeted fans outside the venue, leading to a stampede. Tragically, a woman died, and her son sustained severe injuries. Allu Arjun was taken into custody by authorities on December 13 and held under judicial custody before being granted interim bail.

Police allege that Arjun ignored warnings to leave the venue as chaos unfolded. His team also reportedly failed to communicate critical updates. The incident has sparked protests, with angry fans vandalizing parts of Arjun’s residence.

Sukumar’s Future in Cinema

Despite these controversies, Sukumar remains a prominent figure in Indian cinema. His latest release, Pushpa 2, broke records, becoming the highest-grossing film of the year. The director recently attended a promotional event for Game Changer in Dallas, where his comment about leaving cinema surprised fans again.

While Sukumar’s statement has left audiences questioning his future, it may only be a fleeting remark. As he works on upcoming films, the industry eagerly awaits his next steps. For now, the buzz around Pushpa 2 and Sukumar’s unexpected remark continues to captivate fans worldwide.
