The brutal fight sequence from 'Pushpa 2: The Rule' has earned widespread acclaim from audiences worldwide, who watched it in various Indian languages.
In the scene, Allu Arjun’s character mercilessly kills his opponents by biting their necks, even with his hands tied.
The action scene was executed brilliantly, but netizens have now pointed out the original inspiration behind it.
The fight appears to be inspired by a sequence from the Japanese movie Rurouni Kenshin, where the protagonist battles in a similar manner but uses martial arts instead of exaggerated stunts.
While there are differences, such as the absence of anti-gravity moves in Rurouni Kenshin, the overall concept seems to have been drawn from this iconic fight.
These days, audiences are less concerned about where a scene is "inspired" from, as long as the box-office results speak for themselves.
Additionally, filmmakers often take precautions to avoid copyright issues, ensuring that they "recreate" rather than directly copy such sequences. This fight in Pushpa 2 could be considered one such instance of creative reinterpretation.
