The fire of ‘Pushpa’ is set to blaze again as Zee Cinema gears up for the much-awaited World Television Premiere of ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ on Saturday, May 31 at 7.30 pm. Promising an experience that goes beyond the screen, the channel has launched a character-led promotional campaign that brings the film’s iconic protagonist directly into the homes and hearts of viewers.
According to a UNI report, this campaign marks a creative departure from conventional television promotions. In a clever twist, the promos feature Pushpa himself—voiced by actor Shreyas Talpade in Hindi—making a personal appeal to the audience to watch the premiere with their families. These interactions are designed not just as promotions, but as immersive extensions of the ‘Pushpa’ universe, aimed at engaging viewers emotionally and building a communal viewing experience.
Talpade, who has become the Hindi voice of Pushpa’s fiery character, said the campaign felt like a natural continuation of the film’s immense mass connect. “Pushpa is not just a film anymore, it’s a phenomenon that has captured hearts across the country. Voicing these promos in Pushpa’s unmistakable style was fun—it builds anticipation and brings families together. I’m thrilled to be part of this journey,” he said.
To enhance regional resonance, Zee Cinema has also released dedicated Marathi-language promos targeting key audiences in Maharashtra, ensuring the campaign cuts across linguistic and cultural lines.
The strategy underscores Zee Cinema’s commitment to event-scale premieres that turn movie releases into celebrations. With ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ being one of the most anticipated blockbusters of the year, the premiere is expected to draw massive viewership, particularly given the film’s mass appeal and star power.
