Pushpa 2: The Rule is indeed enjoying a phenomenal run in theaters. Since its premiere, the movie has received a lot of positive reviews from all directions and has drawn large crowds to theatres, demonstrating the power of engaging subject matter. Even though the movie is smashing box office records, it became a talking point because of an unexpected stampede that happened in a theatre during its premiere, when the cast was also present.
