Tollywood star Allu Arjun and Sukumar’s Arya 2 has released in cinemas across the twin Telugu states this morning. The film’s FDFS tickets have been sold like hot cakes, and many screens, especially single screens, reported full houses or fast-filling.
Amid such massive craze, Arya 2 is releasing in both Sandhya 70mm and 35mm at RTC X Roads in Hyderabad amid high security. Police personnel have been deployed in theater premises to avoid any untoward incidents. The Sandhya 70mm stampede tragedy during the Pushpa 2 release last year is still fresh in people’s memories. The tragic incident caused the death of a 35-year-old woman named Revathi, while her 9-year-old son Sai Tej is yet to make a complete recovery.
Arya 2 also features Kajal Aggarwal and Navdeep in lead roles. The film features a chartbuster soundtrack composed by Devi Sri Prasad. Senior producer BVSN Prasad bankrolled the movie, which first released in cinemas in 2009.
