While Djokovic is celebrated for his unflinching determination and dominance on the grass courts, the comparison to Pushpa Raj—a character known for his fearless rise against the odds—felt almost poetic.Adding to the excitement, Allu Arjun himself noticed the tribute. The Telugu superstar reshared the post and expressed his appreciation for the unexpected crossover.
“Absolutely loved this creative idea! Big love to the Wimbledon team,” Allu Arjun wrote, along with his trademark “Thaggede Le” in the caption.Fans couldn’t get enough of the moment. Indian tennis lovers were thrilled to see their homegrown film culture blending seamlessly with one of the world’s most prestigious sporting events.As Djokovic continues his quest for yet another Wimbledon title, the Pushpa reference feels all the more fitting—he’s the man who refuses to bow down, no matter the challenge. And now, thanks to this viral moment, he’s also the man who can claim to have gone full Tollywood.
