What happens

Kushi (transl. Happiness) is a 2001 South Indian Telugu-language romantic comedy film written and directed by S. J. Suryah and produced by A. M. Rathnam. The film stars Pawan Kalyan and Bhumika Chawla. The film was initially planned as a bilingual along with the Tamil version, but released a year later due to production delays. The film features music composed by Mani Sharma. Pawan Kalyan also choreographed all the action sequences and directed three songs in the film. Kushi was released on 27 April 2001 and became a major blockbuster at the box office, emerging as the second highest-grossing Telugu film at the time. The film was critically acclaimed for its screenplay, music, cinematography and especially the performance of Pawan Kalyan. Kushi was the culmination of a streak of six consecutive hits for Pawan Kalyan and his style, mannerisms and dialogues from the film were much imitated by the youth. Kushi was re-released on 31 December 2022 in 4K and became one of the highest grossing Telugu re-release of all time surpassing another Pawan Kalyan film Jalsa. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
