Sunil remembers how Allu Arjun’s Pushpa helped the Pakistanis in Spain recognize him: “They even prepared meals for us.”

Sunil was shocked to learn that Pakistanis recognized him from the Pushpa movies while he was recently in Spain filming Ajith Kumar’s Good Bad Ugly.

Director Sukumar, lead actor Allu Arjun, and the rest of the Pushpa 2: The Rule crew recently attended a success meet in Hyderabad. Sunil, who portrays Mangalam Seenu in Pushpa: The Rise and Pushpa 2: The Rule, recalled how the movies had once made him well-known among Pakistanis in Spain.

During the event, Sunil talked about how, one day after filming Adhik Ravichandran’s Ajith Kumar film Good Bad Ugly in Spain, they started looking for food. He claimed that he, Adhik, and the direction department were still hungry after racing to a gas station at 9:45 p.m.before everything closed at 10 p.m.

We discovered a kebab point while searching for nearby eateries that were still open. We assumed the owners were Indians because they were smoking outside even though it was closed. One of the men said he recognized me from the Pushpa interval block while he was staring at me. I was shocked to see that he even rewatched the scene on his phone. Even though the restaurant was closed, the Pakistani owners prepared food for us. Everywhere I go, Pushpa recognizes me thanks to this movie,” Sunil remarked.
