Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule created a frenzy among Indian audiences, and now that the film has been released on OTT, even international fans and film enthusiasts have taken to social media to share their views on its action sequences. While some praised the high-octane scenes, others mocked them and called them ‘fake’.
US audience praise Pushpa 2 action scene
On Tuesday, an X user (formerly Twitter) shared an action scene from Pushpa 2: The Rule, in which Allu Arjun, clad in a saree, takes down goons with sheer force. The US audience had mixed reactions to the sequence.
Praising the scene, one fan wrote, “You know… I don’t mind the bad physics if it looks this cool. Great scene!” Another commented, “Damn, Hollywood could never!” A third added, “Better than some modern US movies.” One user even quipped, “Marvel has been lacking this creativity. They have the budget.”

Criticism
However, not everyone was impressed. Some poked fun at the exaggerated action, with one user joking, “How does he fly so high without wings?” Another commented, “Is he a superhero or something?” A different user remarked, “Reminds me of kung fu movies where physics take a vacation.” Another quipped, “They have perfected live-action anime!” Some even dismissed it outright, with one stating, “This looks so fake.”
The much-talked-about Jathara sequence, in which Allu Arjun wears a saree, performs a powerful dance, and then fights off attackers, set the big screens on fire in India. Fans called it the highlight of the film.
