pushpa : The rise movie review
Pushpa: The Rise – Part 1 is a 2021 Indian Telugu-language action drama film[5] written and directed by Sukumar. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers in association with Muttamsetty Media, it stars Allu Arjun as the titular character alongside Fahadh Faasil (in his Telugu debut) and Rashmika Mandanna. The film also features Jagadeesh Prathap Bandari, Sunil, Rao Ramesh, Dhananjaya, Anasuya Bharadwaj, Ajay and Ajay Ghosh in supporting roles. The first of two cinematic parts, the film depicts the rise of a coolie in the smuggling syndicate of red sanders, a rare wood that grows only in the Seshachalam Hills of Andhra Pradesh state.
Pushpa Raj is a coolie who works to smuggle red sanders, a rare wood that only grows in the Seshachalam Hills of the Chittoor district in Andhra Pradesh. When DSP Govindappa raids them in the forest, Pushpa smartly hides and recovers the stock, thereby gaining the trust of his employer Konda Reddy. With the help of novel ideas to smuggle the red sanders, Pushpa quickly rises through the ranks and becomes Konda Reddy's partner in the red sanders smuggling network.
Mangalam Srinu, a merciless dealer who manages the red sanders syndicate entrusts Konda Reddy to keep 1000 tons of his stock safe. As Konda's younger brother, Jolly Reddy is deemed incompetent, Pushpa is given the job. However, Govindappa tracks down their location and attempts to raid them. In order to transport the stock quickly, Pushpa throws all the wood logs into the adjacent river while sending his accomplice Keshava to bribe the officials and dam the river downstream. As all of the stock is saved from being seized, Srinu and Konda are relieved. At a party, Pushpa overhears that Srinu is selling the wood at a much higher rate than what they're paid. Pushpa asks Konda to demand a fair share but backs down as going against Srinu seems risky.
Meanwhile, Pushpa meets Srivalli and instantly falls for her. On their engagement day, his half-brother Mohan obstructs the ceremony and denies Pushpa's lineage from his deceased father because he was born out of wedlock while his mother is injured in the ensuing scuffle. This angers Pushpa which motivates him to rise higher in life. The next day, Pushpa smuggles the wood directly to Chennai and meets Srinu from whom he demands ₹1 crore per ton as their share. Srinu refuses and his men attack him but Pushpa overpowers them. Pushpa then goes to Chennai himself and cuts a deal to sell the wood at ₹1.5 crore per ton, which Konda and Pushpa agree to share equally.
Jolly, being a womanizer, blackmails Srivalli to spend a night with him while holding her father captive. Knowing this, an enraged Pushpa attacks Jolly, thereby temporarily paralyzing him. Konda, finding out that Pushpa is responsible for his brother's condition, takes him to a secluded place in
