Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule, directed by Sukumar, is performing exceptionally well at the box office, despite receiving mixed reviews.
As per reports, Pushpa 2 is expected to cross the 1000 crore mark in the next two days and will become the fastest 1000 crore movie in Indian cinema. The film is on track to gross a lifetime total of 1500 crores worldwide.

Meanwhile, the Tamil industry is struggling to produce a 1000-crore film. If there’s any director capable of achieving this feat from Tamil cinema, it is Lokesh Kanagaraj.
Social media users have been comparing Sukumar to Lokesh Kanagaraj, suggesting that Lokesh might now feel jealous of Sukumar’s Pushpa 2 box office success.

Lokesh is a great director with film making skills that appeal tremendously with today’s audience. Despite making successful films, he has yet to break pan-Indian collection records.
One major reason is that he hasn’t had the right pan-India stars for his films. Not having a hero that can take his film to the next level has been his biggest problem.

Lokesh Kanagaraj needs to work with pan-Indian stars like Allu Arjun or Prabhas. Many believe that even though his last film, Leo, had Vijay, Vijay doesn’t have a pan-India market outside Tamil Nadu. This is seen as the reason why Lokesh Kanagaraj hasn’t broken pan-Indian box office records.
If he teams up with a star like Allu Arjun or Prabhas with a kickass script, crossing the 1000 crore mark would be a cakewalk for him.
