Director Sukumar is widely recognized for his knack for embedding high-energy, unforgettable item numbers into his films, and the anticipation is building for Pushpa 2. Known for creating songs that become cultural moments, Sukumar has consistently delivered tracks that are not just part of the movie but become standalone hits. Fans keenly await the item song in Pushpa 2, wondering how it will measure up to his previous chart-toppers. His track record includes featuring leading actresses like Pooja Hegde in Rangasthalam and Samantha Ruth Prabhu in Pushpa: The Rise. Samantha’s song, “Oo Antava Maawa,” in the first Pushpa film, became a global phenomenon, setting a high bar for item songs in Indian cinema.
With the release of Pushpa 2 drawing near on December 6th, the speculation around who would star in the film’s item number has finally ended. Bollywood sensation Shraddha Kapoor is confirmed to bring her star power to the much-awaited song. Producers have reportedly finalized the agreement with Shraddha, including an advance payment, signaling the fast-track commencement of the song’s production. Filming is expected to kick off imminently.
Shraddha Kapoor’s current wave of popularity, boosted by the success of her recent movie Stree 2, has solidified her position as a sought-after actress. This surge in fame allowed her to command a substantial fee for her appearance in the Pushpa 2 item song. Recognizing her significant appeal, particularly within the Hindi film market, the producers agreed to her terms. Given the immense buzz surrounding Pushpa 2, the item song featuring Shraddha is predicted to garner massive attention, potentially echoing or even surpassing the sensational impact of “Oo Antava Maawa.”
Adding to the excitement, renowned choreographer Ganesh Acharya will be crafting the dance moves for this item number, promising visually stunning and energetic sequences. The music will be composed by the acclaimed Devi Sri Prasad, who was also behind the music of “Oo Antava Maawa,” ensuring a continuation of the film’s musical vibrancy. Filming for this highly anticipated song is tentatively scheduled for the first week of November, following the wrap-up of the dialogue-centric scenes.
