Earlier this week, Allu Arjun won the Best Actor Award at the 70th Filmfare Awards South for his performance in Sukumar's Pushpa 2: The Rule. The actor celebrated the feat on Instagram as he shared a glimpse from the ceremony.

"Thank you, Filmfare, for this wonderful honour. It's my absolute pleasure to receive it in a land where I am loved in such a unique way. I'm humbled by everyone's blessings, and I dedicate this award to all my fans for their infinite love," he wrote.

The actor looked dapper in an all-black ensemble, which he accessorised with a few jewellery pieces.

In other milestones, Pushpa 2 won the Best Director (Sukumar), Best Film (Naveen Yerneni, Y Ravi Shankar), Best Music Director (Devi Sri Prasad), and Best Production Design (Ramakrishna and Monika).

Directed by Sukumar B, Pushpa 2: The Rule was released in 2024, emerging as a big hit at the box office. A sequel to 2021's Pushpa: The Rise, the film featured Allu Arjun in the lead, alongside Rashmika Mandanna, Fahadh Faasil, Jagapathi Babu, Sunil and Rao Ramesh.

The team is expected to return for the third instalment of Pushpa.
