Allu Arjun on winning the National Award

In the latest promo for Unstoppable With NBK Season 4, Balakrishna asked Arjun, “How did you feel immediately after you got the National Award?” The actor replied, “Best actor National Award evariki vachindi ani check things, okka Telugu peru kuda ledu. Adi naa manusu baa lo popodindi. Idi nenu round-up chesi, deeni kottali (I checked the list of National Awards for Best Actor and realized that no Telugu person got it. It pained me to see that. I decided then to get it). “

The promo shows that Arjun’s mother Nirmala Allu joined him later in the episode to reveal some unknown insights about the actor. In one segment, Arjun mentioned that if one thing angers him, it’s injustice against women. The episode will air on Aha on November 15. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, Dulquer Salmaan, Meenakshi Chaudhary, Naga Vamsi, Suriya and Bobby Deol have been guests on the show so far.

Future work

Arjun will soon star in Pushpa 2: The Rule, the sequel to Pushpa: The Rise. The film will be released in theaters on December 5. Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Faasil will reprise their roles as Srivalli and Bhanwar Singh Shekawat, while Arjun will reprise his role as the titular character, Pushpa Raj. The film will pick up where the previous film left off and show Pushpa’s rise in the red sander smuggling world.
