Manoj Bajpayee reportedly approached for the role of police officer in Allu Arjun starrer Pushpa: The Rule

According to the several reports, Manoj Bajpayee has been approached by the makers for the role of a police officer. The actor had previously called the film immaculate and praised the way it was shot. While he and the makers are yet to confirm the news, it surely will be interesting to see the actor in Pushpa: The Rule.

Written and directed by Sukumar and produced by Mythri Movie Makers and Muttamsetty Media, the Telugu action drama marked the debut of the noted Malayalam and Tamil actor, Fahadh Faasil in Telugu cinema.

Pushpa takes the viewers on a galvanizing, intensely wild, hair-raising ride deep into the Seshachalam forests situated in Andhra Pradesh. Here, lorry driver Pushpa Raj—portrayed by Allu Arjun—is deeply involved in the smuggling of red sandalwood trees. The movie chronicles the fight of good against evil as the police crack down on the smuggling empire that is rampant in these parts. The fast-paced, powerful, and thought-provoking narrative pulls the viewers into a vortex where there is no right or wrong, and there are no bad men—only heroes in different hues of gray. The movie garnered rave reviews from fans and the film industry alike, and the first day of its release across the country saw packed houses, with Allu Arjun and Fahadh Faasil fans thronging cinema houses.
