Interestingly, the actor was considered for the Pushpa part 1 also but he backed out due to personal reasons. On the other hand, Manoj Bajpayee’s name also went viral, but the Family Man actor was quick to refuse the rumours. Taking to his social media, the actor wrote, “Kahan kahan se samachar laatey hain aaplog.”
Meanwhile, Vijay Sethupathi playing a negative role in Jawan was earlier confirmed by Peeping Moon. A source close to the development had said, “Shah Rukh Khan and Atlee were keen on casting Vijay Sethupathi after Rana Daggubati backed out of the film, citing scheduling conflict due to his ill health. SRK and Sethupathi share a great admiration for each other, and hence, when SRK himself offered Sethupathi this role in Jawan, he couldn’t refuse it. The Super Deluxe actor has altered his entire shooting diary to accommodate Jawan in between at SRK’s request.”
Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna starrer Pushpa 2, was supposed to get released by the end of this year but due to delays, the release date has been pushed, while the film is set to go on floors very soon.
