Allu Arjun and Anushka Shetty Movie: South superstar Allu Arjun is making a comeback after 4 years. He is coming with the film Pushpa 2. The first part gave him worldwide recognition and now the second part is also creating a huge buzz. Once again the audience will get to see the pairing of Rashmika Mandanna in the role of Shrivalli with Pushpa. Allu Arjun’s career has also spanned two decades in the South. During this period the actor worked with many actresses. Once he was even paired with Baahubali’s Devasena. This feat happened 8 years ago when he was seen in the film of actress Anushka Shetty, who played the role of Devasena in the film Bahubali. Let us know which film it was and how it fared at the box office.
Rudhramadevi Film Box Office Collection: What was the collection of Rudhramadevi film?
In the year 2015, when Anushka Shetty’s film Bahubali The Beginning was released with Prabhas, the same year Anushka Shetty became a part of another big film. She was seen in the film Rudramadevi with Allu Arjun. This was a period drama action-war film. Actor Rana Daggubati, who played the role of lead villain in Babubli, was also in this film. His Baahubali with Prabhas proved to be a historical film and changed the entire equation of the box office. Sadly, this pairing of ‘Pushpa’ and Devsena was not particularly liked by the fans.
Was Rudramadevi a hit or a flop?
This film of Anushka and Allu Arjun got good response from critics. Apart from this, the acting of the cast in the film was also strong. Even this character of Anushka Shetty is considered one of the best performances of her career. But even after this, the film fans did not like it much. Actually, the main reason for this was Bahubali himself. This film came out in July. Whereas Rudramadevi came in October. By this time, the scenes of Baahubali were imprinted in people’s minds and there was only one question on their lips, why Kattappa killed Baahubali. Rudramadevi was swept away in the storm of this craze. According to reports, the budget of the film was around Rs 80 crores and the collection of the film was around Rs 86 crores.

Meaning that the film was somehow able to recover its budget. While talking about Baahubali, this film had earned Rs 600 crores worldwide. This had never happened in history till that time. In such a situation, the decline of Rudramadevi was decided by the rise of Bahubali. There were no such major flaws in the rest of the film. Just the timing of the release was wrong. And ultimately time is the most powerful.
