Netflix, a global leader in streaming services, has caused quite a stir with its handling of the much-anticipated Telugu movie Pushpa 2: The Rule starring Allu Arjun. The platform seems to be facing some confusion regarding the movie’s release, leaving fans puzzled.
Initially, Netflix announced that Pushpa 2: Reloaded would be released on January 30, 2025. However, the announcement was swiftly removed, causing confusion. Later, on social media platforms like Instagram and X, the Hindi version of the movie was notably absent, further adding to the confusion. The next day, Netflix updated the app, confirming the release of Pushpa 2: The Rule (Reloaded Version) on January 30, 2025, along with a countdown.
While it seemed clear that Pushpa 2 was ready for its global OTT release, the confusion deepened with the mention of a “Reloaded” version, speculating that Netflix might release two different versions of the film. When the movie was finally available at midnight, only the Reloaded Version—featuring an additional 23 minutes of footage—was accessible.
To make matters more complicated, the Hindi version was added after the initial release, but the Kannada version, which was promised, was mysteriously missing. Fans are now speculating whether this was a technical issue or a deliberate move by Netflix. The absence of the Kannada version has left many viewers wondering why the OTT platform made such an omission. Fans are eagerly awaiting an official statement to clarify Netflix’s position on the confusion surrounding Pushpa 2.
