If there is one hero who is largely benefited from the Covid pandemic, it would be Allu Arjun. He scored a box office blockbuster with Pushpa: The Rise. While the film didn’t meet the box office expectations in the domestic market, it fared exceptionally well in the pan-India circuit.
Allu Arjun daringly released Pushpa right amidst the onset of the third wave despite the time constraints. And he managed to score a box office hit with the film.
Soon after Pushpa’s release, several state governments imposed restriction on seating capacity at cinema halls. Consequently, films like RRR and Radhe Shyam got postponed which only helped Pushpa get a free long run at the box office.
All things combined, Allu Arjun can be considered as the only hero who was largely benefited from the Covid pandemic.
