The Pushpa 2 movie dialogue war has exploded into the political arena of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The once-entertaining cinema dialogue “Rapa Rapa Narukutam” is now a weapon in political meme battle.
In June 2025, YSRCP supporters in Sattenapalli used posters quoting the Pushpa 2 dialogue during Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy’s rally. The message was clear: fierce warnings to political opponents. This stirred controversy.
Andhra Pradesh Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan condemned the use of violent dialogues in politics. He urged that such cinema lines should remain on the screen. Using them to threaten people harms democracy, he said.
Not to be left behind, Telangana’s BRS turned up the heat. At a farmer protest in Sangareddy, party leaders displayed a flex banner saying “2028 Rapa Rapa 3.0 Loading.” This is a direct nod to the meme culture surrounding Pushpa 2.
Similar posters appeared in Suryapet. This shows BRS’s plan to ignite political fire in key Telangana regions. The party aims to challenge its rivals with aggressive slogans.
Telugu politics has long borrowed from cinema. But the shift from songs to sharp dialogues marks a new phase. Now, punchlines like “Rapa Rapa Narukutam” are more than entertainment. They are political weapons.
Memes and dialogues spread fast on social media. They reach youth and voters instantly. Political parties use them to send clear warnings. The trend blurs lines between cinema and real-life politics.
Before, political campaigns focused on catchy songs. Now, short and sharp dialogues rule. Memes and punchlines spread faster on social media. They capture attention and influence youth.
Earlier, Pawan Kalyan’s line “Nenu vachake time avutondi” became popular. But Pushpa 2’s “Rapa Rapa” took dialogue politics to a new level.
