Allu Arjun's Deglamorized Role in Pushpa Can be a Major Breakthrough for his Career
Allu is known for his stylish look and glamorous approach on the big screen. But in Pushpa, he has decided to deglamorize to suit the role of a rowdy, greedy smuggler. And this can be a major breakthrough for his career as the success of Pushpa will also help to establish him as a versatile actor who can do much more than just action and dance sequences.
There is a common perception that Telugu heroes will not compromise their ever stylish look. @alluarjun deglams himself for his role in #Pushpa, pushing the boundaries #AA. Good to see him experimenting different roles! 👌👌👌 pic.twitter.com/42svxCsOyt

Already the expectations for Pushpa are quite high because this will be the third movie of the trio of Allu Arjun, composer Devi Sri Prasad, and director Sukumar. The earlier two movies from this trio Arya and Arya 2 also were big blockbusters.
