The multilingual action-thriller chronicles the red sanders heist in the hills of Andhra and depicts the convoluted nexus that unfurls in the course of the narrative of a man who is taken by avarice.

In a statement, the film's producers said ''Pushpa'' will have a 30-day-long schedule in Hyderabad with appropriate safety measures in place. '''Pushpa' is an action-packed story that has moments that tug at the heart and filming it has been a joyride. We're very happy to restart the shooting and we hope to wrap it up in time to present it to the audience.

''We witnessed incredible excitement for 'Introduction To Pushpa Raj' and so we aim to surpass the expectations that have been created. We would love to meet the viewers in cinemas soon through 'Pushpa','' producers Naveen Yerneni and Y. Ravi Shankar of Mythri Movie Makers said.
