Allu Arjun's Pushpa: The Rise to have five shows daily in Telangana

The Telangana government, on Thursday, accorded permission to run five shows of Allu Arjun-starrer Pushpa: The Rise, which is hitting the screens on Friday, December 17.

Reportedly, Dil Raju, who is releasing the film in Telangana, requested the government to screen five shows daily.

In response, the home department, which issued orders to this effect, stated that the theatres were allowed to run five shows (four regular shows and one special) a day from December 17-30 across the state.

The screening of five shows is permitted on usual terms and conditions of payment of entertainment tax to the government for 14 days only. This is to avoid the heavy rush, black marketing of tickets, and law and order problem.

Until now, in Telangana, the multiplexes were allowed to screen more than five shows a day, whereas the single-screen theatres had permission to run only four shows.

Bankrolled by Mythri Movie Makers, Pushpa: The Rise brings together the successful combination of Sukumar and Allu Arjun for the third time
